Bill you can buy carburettor links at the auto parts resellers or carby specialists,they are a bit more substantial than the type 3 links. I used to
buy them from North Coast Auto Accessories in Taree when I had the workshop.If you can't find any let me know. Cheers Les

I did exactly the same thing with my country buggy, i used the brass carb linkage ball joints, much stronger than the type three linkages, i also have
a type 34 and could not find any new type three joint , so i converted my linkage set up to the spring loaded carb linklages, these are the joints i
used, they have the smallest ball at 1/4".

Thanks for the feedback guys.
I had bought a couple of brass carb ball studs but they were 6mm and I wanted to use wiper blades that were closer to 5 mm wide
I will probably go for the 1/4" ball studs and brass linkages as it all gets to hard to get a "perfect" replacement.
