ddaenen1 278 Posted January 11, 2015 Looking for some Astute hardware that doesn't seem to be so easy to find at first glance or when found, the shipping cost is more than the actual part value : 6mm Ball nut (2x) 6mm adjusters (2x) Ball collar (2x) 49,5mm damper shafts (2x) - to restore my rear hicaps Rear hicap damper springs (2x) Astute front narrow spike tires (2x) Parts do not need to be new for me but fully functional. If anybody has any of the above ( or all ) or knows where i can find them, give me a shout! Share this post Link to post

ddaenen1 278 Posted May 22, 2015 Still working on the Astute, my longest project ever Looking for some Astute hardware that doesn't seem to be so easy to find at first glance or when found, the shipping cost is more than the actual part value : 6mm Ball nut (2x) 6mm adjusters (2x) Ball collar (2x) 49,5mm damper shafts (2x) - to restore my rear hicaps Rear hicap damper springs (2x) Astute front narrow spike tires (2x) Parts do not need to be new for me but fully functional. If anybody has any of the above ( or all ) or knows where i can find them, give me a shout! Still working on the Astute, my longest project ever! Got the narrow spike tires now (actually 2 sets). Got hicaps in the mail but i still need need the following parts to complete: I seem to have trouble finding the 6mm ball nut. I need 2 of those. Also struggling to find these 6mm ball collars. I am not sure if they are the same as the ones used in the hipcap top mounts. If they are, i would be looking for 6 of these, if not 2 will do: Last but not least, i am also searching the top mount kits for the hipcaps (4x): If anyone have these (they do not need to be new) or knows where i can order them, any leads are much appreciated!
