Wanted C-ring For Porsche 959 & Celica Gr.b

[irondog 0]

Hi guys,

I've started restoration of a Porsche 959 (bought used and assembled) and, when I've tried to remove wheel axels from wheel hubs I deformed the C-ring which locks the axel to the hub.

So, I'm looking for a replacement. The part is inside the ROD BAG of the kit (which is unobtainable) but maybe can be found elsewere... can anybody help me to find the out (I'd prefer to replace all of them)??? Thank you

If you can't find a replacement you could make another from a coil spring from another source. This is what I did with a missing C-ring from my Fox. Cut a single turn from a spring sourced from a broken toy gun. Opened it up slightly with needle-nose pliers.

You may even be able to reshape the deformed one carefully with needle nose pliers. I needed to do this to the one that was still in the Fox gearbox as it was very loose and kept falling off.
