As you can see, these were drawn up a while ago and are yet to be published, along with the others that go to make up the set..
Thanks Hugh, that's brilliant.
They almost added to the confusion, but I think I have worked it out... I'm reasonably certain that the end of the radius arm is 3/4" diameter, the corresponding hole in the end plate is 25/32 which suggests 1/32" clearance, but the bush dimensions on that drawing indicate 3/4" OD and a 1/2" hole through the centre. This must be a bush to put in the end of a sawn off Austin axle in the hole the radius rod was originally pushed into... the flame cut end has a half inch hole in the equivalent place for a securing bolt.
Do you happen to have a drawing showing the hole diameter in a standard axle Hugh?
