Help in sourcing some replacement parts

[finlay666]

Im looking to updrage to conroe (so a 775 mounting system) however Having looked at my Swiftech Storm mounting bag of goodies, im missing a fair bit that is on the manual (I bought it 2nd hand, dont get me started on it)

Is there a way that I can contact Swiftech (already emailed everyone that emails are given through for the website with no success as of yet) and was wondering if a sit sold the replacement kits?

cheers for your help in advance

You can buy the parts on their site, they also have PDFs up there for installation. I had to buy some replacement 1/2 barbs when I snapped mine off once :D

Yeah but im after the actual mounting kit for 775 (and backplate if they provided one), im not seeing it on the site to buy stuff, nothing for the sorm really aside from the new revision part for the jets

[finlay666]

yes it is that one and thanks

EDIT: no it isnt, I have the mounting block already (the bit with all the holes in) if you turn on the manual you linked to the 775 fitting im after parts F to L on the list, not before

*BUMP*

If there isnt a way to get hold of the parts, could I just get them from a hardware store? any special hardware I will need for it?

[jimmyz]

if you are talking about only the bolt , washers, springs and nuts then yes those should be available at your local hardware store just make sure you are getting the right amout of pressure with out bottoming out the springs.and don't forget rubber washers

[finlay666]

yeah that was what I was after, thanks

are rubber washers hard to get hold of? never seen them in my local hardware store, I could try a large chain one when I get some time off work though

And thanks jimmyz!

All you need is (4) 6-32 x 2.5" or 3" pan head bolts, (16) 6-32 nylon washers, (8) 6-32 nuts, (4) 6-32 knurled nuts and (4) medium tension springs approx 1" long.

[finlay666]

thanks for that!

just a little update, swiftech said contact the european supplier.....did that sometime yesterday/the day before, and still no reply, would be more convenient to just order the full kit for 775 really (as in from swiftech than buying it all individually....although could get like 20 of everything and sell on 4 packs of ready made kits if people need them)

when you say 6-32 what do you meanexactly? like 6/32" diameter (3/18") or what? I dont totally understand what you are saying sorry

http://www.namrick.co.uk/browse.asp?PCID=13 seems to do a large selection of parts, but im not sure what it is I need (i dont do fixtures and fittings lol)

it like 3mm metric
and #6 imperial/standard (inches, foot, etc)

for the rubber part, DIY use old bicycle wheel interior cut into small pcs...
(not exactly the prettiest...)

[finlay666]

thanks, just rooted through the swiftech kit, found the xeon bolts, and some slightly thinner and shorter, are those the 775 ones? I think i only need the springs and washers now, but have no idea where to get the springs from

radio controlled car parts? small enough springs i think...
