Bit of a long shot but I can only ask, does anyone have or know the whereabouts of a set of Panther A idlers to replace the ones in the kit. I know Robert Morley in the USA used to make some but I don't think he has made these for a long while.

Re: Wanted, Panther A idlers
Hi Steve, Martin Diessel said that he has a pair that he might be willing to sell.
Don't know of any others.

Re: Wanted, Panther A idlers
Steve, I have a drawing for some idlers but won’t be able to go to my engineers for a week or two I may need to tweak the drawing to suit Armortek as yet I haven’t had time to compare sizes for compatibility

Hi Mark.
Those could be a good option if I have no success with the ones Martin has, especially if you could mod the drawings to suit the Armortek set up.

Re: Wanted, Panther A idlers
Steve if and I do say if the drawing needs tweaking it will merely be foe bearing location that is all, I will endeavour to take a closer look at the weekend and let you know mu findings, just to let you know the idlers are machined from alloy there is no white metal involved.
