Help - need as many as anyones got.....the front inner hinge pins for the wishbones off a Cat 2000 - I do not have a part number but the pin I believe is a 1/8th and has the front part of it stepped down in size....

Hi yah DC
I checked and no stock mate
Need them urgently as well

[David Church]

It may be worth calling to make sure, some time they find bits lying around...

or try brookie. he has most things schumacher

Tony, from memory, the front inner pin was the "U" bar, and i remember it being 1/8 all the way round?

[RudeTony]

You know you may be right there - I was driving for Schumacher back in those days and I do remember something similar.
I for sure though have schumacher front inner pins that are 1/8th and for sure have a step down on the front edge - if I rememeber right they use to slot in a front brace hence the step down on the pin
For the life of me I can't remember the exact car - I thought it was the 2000 CAT

Sounds like the Cat 3000/Fireblade rear pin to me. That was a straight 1/8 pin, with a step down (around 3mm long for a guess). I'd guess the step diameter was about 2.7mm ish?

Cat 2000 and 3000 definitely had a "U" shaped and bent (with kick up) front "pin".

Tony,
My Cat2000, sits on the shelf. It definitively has a 'front pivot bar' (U shape). Have checked manual and the part no is U1484x.
I do infact have a spare one out of its' packet, a little tarnished, but fully functional. You can have it!
I shalln't be going to the F3s at Broxstowe, but could try to give it to one of the FORCC drivers tonight.

IDIOT IDIOT IDIOT
At least I admit
It's the REAR pins that I need.
My excuse is that I am getting old so everyone has to excuse me

So if anyone has some REAR pins I would be happy to purchase

Tony, i've left a voicemail with a friend about the rear hinge pins for a CAT 2K. As soon as he gets back to me i'll let you know, he has loads of CAT stuff NIP.

[RudeTony]

Cheers cheers cheers - need more if anyone else has them!!!

[NeilD]

How many packs you after?

[RudeTony]

3 ish

[NeilD]

Ok, i'll get back to you asap.

[NeilD]

You have a PM.

rear pin from a 2000 was a relative std affair - 1/8 all the way down with e-clip grooves. The 3000 was stepped - see my post from last night.

Don't think I have any of either, just trying to help make sure you get what you're actually looking for!
