Yes, yes, I know. Unobtainable at a reasonable price. A couple of vendors are listing it, but do they actually exist?
However, I have a cunning plan to re-manufacture in manganese bronze or silicon bronze, will also look at making 539741 as well.
But first I need a second-hand FRC1931 to reverse-engineer the dimensions.
Anybody in the UK or maybe Europe got a badly pitted example collecting dust for just such an eventuality?
I have 2 good ones, but they are currently in daily use...

hi
i'm looking at replacing the swivels on my stage1-this is what i've found out so far
p.a blanchard have 1 frc 1931 in stock-£395+vat but cannot get anymore
rovers north in the usa are advertising new ones
heystee do a conversion to convert a 4/6 cyl front axle to stage1 v8 spec-but looks like it uses a standard series 3 swivel housing
no one in the uk can supply them
hope this helps

Hi Lee,
you can have them as far as I'm concerned. They are in my garage in Surrey with a load of other bits, I think they are in fairly good nick. I do spend a lot of time in Plymouth so that might be an easier option
all the best
Keith
