Throttle linkage bushings
Hey folks, thought I’d pop over here and share a throttle linkage fix that I just completed. Normally I’m on the XJ6/12 forum where I’m swapping in a 1995 6 liter V12 into my 1974 XJ12.
as part of that swap I discovered the bushings were gone from the linkage on throttle bottle /intake.
I bought this set of bushings off Amazon, 8 mm ID and 12 mm OD. The ID is perfect, the OD is about .5 mm too small and so it isn’t a press fit into the bracket. It probably doesn’t matter if that bushing spun in the bracket but I happened to have a couple of snap rings that just fit to retain the bushing.
