OK, so how easy is it to fit this ? Any special tools required ?



To be honest, I can't be bothered to drag out the service manual ... :oooops:

Also available from here.

E120.40 + 20% VAT is slightly cheaper(?).

It's all down to the P&P, I suppose....

No special tools needed. A deep socket (17mm? IIRC) is needed for the sperical nut and some method of holding it, while you use a Allen key down the centre. Molegrips might hold it, but I milled two flats on it to hold it with a spanner.

Full fitting instructions are on the web site

one of the problems that we got rid of was getting a socket on to undo and tighten the spherical nut so its been redesigned so that a ring spanner will fit it and allow the holding with an hex key to tighten a lot of thought in the whole design was incorporated to make changing it as easy as possible like having two locating cut outs not one and a built in nut on the outer casing lOl

Oberon unit fitted, very easy install, much better clutch action, hopefully that will be the end of any worries about the clutch cylinder weeping.
Luckily I have a set of pass through sockets (which drive on the outside of the socket rather than an internal square) so undoing the op rod nut whilt holding the shaft with an allen key was simple.
