In an earlier post, I was asking about rear bump stops and rebound rubbers. I asked Tony Wood if he had any, which he does, but needs further info due to change points to ensure he quotes for the correct parts.
That openened up a ball of confusion in my head at least. Tony, rightly, asked for MS number as mine is a Morris MK1, of 1966, and on the cusp of change between a type which has an alloy bracket supporting the rear displacer, and a previous version which didn't.
Looking at the plates on the car, the only thing I can find with MS involved is M17S 5039 M
Which is the commission number.
The parts book numbering shows the change point at MS or AS to be further on by some way.
The alloy bracket, illustration 3, also seems to be fitted to later cars.
Perhaps I've misinterpreted the parts books, both mechanical and body, but the numbering has me confused as the bump/rebound rubbers are very different between types.
I would really like to know what I'm up against before I order parts, and go digging. EEEEK!
Thanks
Jeff.
