Hi Bill,

Thanks for your input. I found the same info that you quoted relating to heat treatment etc. If I did need to replace the parts I think cutting from solid would be the best option and maybe making the areas round the clevis pin holes a bit more chunky. Followed by some expert heat treatment etc. Casting seems to be out.

I take your point about lever 3 pulling unevenly and it would be better if the holes were equal distance but in fact it won't pull unevenly as the lever pivots from higher up and will just shift to the side to compensate. See attached diagram.

David
