Default Servo / Rose Joints Update

The correct rose joint is a 3/8" x 3/8" female right hand thread rose joint. Patrick sourced his from:

They sound good quality, and are remarkably good value at only £9.50 including postage.
Quick update.
The above rose joint will not suit most owners requirements - the bolt welded to the brake pedal is, in most cases, 10mm which is slightly larger than a 3/8" eye hole.

The best solution is a 3/8" UNF male thread rose joint with a 10mm eye , together with a 3/8" UNF female collar thread about 25mm long . The rose joint can be obtained from ABC (Anglia bearing Company) part no. MP061F39.
