22 tooth speedo drive for 2.8i wanted.

Post by Capri gold »

Can anybody help with the correct 22 tooth speedo drive gear for my 2.8i 5 speed.
Mine has been swapped out for the one used in the 2.0L as the diff ratio was also changed to 3.44. It's a very tidy car and I'm bringing it back to standard spec. Also looking for 3.06 crown wheel and pinion.

Many thanks
Peter.

Hi Peter,
Are you still looking for this part?
I still have the packaging from a genuine part that I bought some time ago. I searched for the part number on Google and to my surprise it looks as though it might still be available!
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252794811528
It's a different colour than the one I bought, but that alone won't make any difference.
I would suggest that you use the part number (1546881) to confirm the fitment with your local main dealer.

Re: Mk1 pre-facelift parts needed.

Post by Capri gold »

Thanks very much for your reply Andrew. I did manage to get a used one from Geartech. Great to see new are available though!

I do still need a couple of things;
1. Spare wheel hold down plate for pre-facelift mk1. Just to be clear though it's the 'u' shaped one used on the early rostyle wheels.The bolt head is recessed down inside the centre.
2. Opening rear quarter glass and latches for mk1 Capri. Obviously either facelift or pre-facelift, it doesn't matter.
3. Passengers Inner door handle surround liner for mk1 pre-facelift. This is the black plastic part that fits in behind the door handle and clips into the chrome die-cast alloy handle surround. It covers the screw that holds the handle surround in place.

Any help with these items would be greatly appreciated. :)
