Looking for N or K trunnion boxes and front spring-eye mounts (front of dumb-irons). Anything useful for patterns or dimensions to enable repair, reproduction or fabrication. Location - Australia. Cheers.

Hello, Doug.
I can’t help with trunnions or dumb iron ends but I can help with measurements if required.
Cheers,
Chris

I may be able to help with trunions boxes but you’re have to help me ID them. Send me an email please.
Thanks

Hello, Dan.
If Doug is needing trunnion boxes he may not have details. Could I suggest you send me pictures and measurements and I will be able to say what they are?
Regards,
Chris
P.S. Could you include the size of the spring opening. ( width)

For information:-
Dan has sent me pictures of his trunnion box castings and I can confirm they are of K type pattern.( Okay for the N type as well.)
They look lie Ron Grant castings.

From an earlier forum post I see that there are slight differences between N (left) and K (right) - does the K require a bit of packing underneath the mount to suit an N chassis? Both seem very close in form.

Hello, Doug.
Dan’s castings are really for the K type in that they have the added boss for the extra bolt. ( five on the K type, four on the N type.) Shouldn’t need any packing to fit either chassis.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Dan - I don't seem to be able to get emails to you due to some sort of online security - they bounce back & go to "spam".
My email - hoodoog53@gmail.com
I will definitely buy a pair of your K-type trunnion box castings. Please try to email me directlycwith all costs. I will send address details for postage. Westbury has confirmed that your trunnion boxes are OK for my needs. Thanks.
