Struggling to find a supplier for OEM shims for my gearbox.


Does anyone know of a company that could cut me some?

Thanks.

I did some googling too, although I was looking for a recommendation from previous experience.

Ardoran are Honda and Susie . If genuine Mariner parts give Ewen at Sea and Shore Broughty Ferry a ring great guy will help if he can. Mention my ne if you want Ewen knows me. Ardoran are great guys and do good work it's just if you want Barrus parts. Hope you find something. Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Rib.net

Righto billy.

I've checked the microfiche for parts but they are listed as 'obsolete', maybe a dealer might happen to have a set lying on a dusty shelf somewhere.
