Thanks Matt for that. I am trying to sort out what has been changed on this thing so that I can made it original.
I found a original sales brochure on the moke with the parts I picked up and have been trying to work out whats different from that.
It still has original bars front and back with the magic wand gearbox. The rear arms were changed for 13" ones. The brake drums on it are spacer, but I have plenty of std ones.
The other question was the steering wheel mini type or the two spoke one with BMC in the center

On a 67 Moke it would be the early Mini 2 spoke `bus wheel'.

I think the 67 mokes had 1/2 inch wide drums didn`t they?

The very early mokes had std flat drums, then they changed over to 1/2inch wide & the late ones had 1inch wide

Well!!!!!! that's interesting. I just checked and the ones on it are 1/2" spacer. I checked some other spacer drums I have and they are 1"
So maybe these are the correct ones for this car. The thing that threw me was the 13" arms that had been put on the back but the rear has same drums. Pulled one off and brand new. Never fired a shot ,so I hope the rest are the same :D :D
Thanks for that Matt I was about to pull the lot off and put them in the spare parts dept.

I thought all the little wheelers had flat drums, and they went to spacer drums with the 13" wheels?
But a 67 is/was a little wheeler.

OK Matt now do the 1/2"spacer drums go with the 850 magic wand gear shift as well for this model. I have triple checked the original moke sales brochure and looking at the pics of the wheels I would be both my nuts that it has spacer drums. The position of the rims in relation to the cv nut .
The pics show a magic wand gear shift.
Now next question is the "uni drives" rubber type or cooper S type uni.

You are probably better off asking these questions on the Moke forum. It should have a pudding stirrer, but I'm not sure about the drums question.

I know early 13" wheel Mokes had the 1/2 spacer, but I'm not sure if anty little wheelers did.

EDIT: Oops, I meant Magic Wand. I get the two mixed up.

A `67 should have 3 synchro box and magic wand. The `puddin' stirrer' came later (1969?) with the adapted 4 synchro remote box.

I've got an unmolested (but rusty) 67 in the shed at home (numbered in the first 2000) , I'm fairly sure it has flat drums, rubber unis and the two spoke wheel, I'll confirm all later! 8)

As Bnicho said, there are people on the Moke forum who've had lil wheelers from new! :shock:
