That seems roughly compatible. Is there a mark (or a lack of dirt) on the bar where the alternator bolt usually sits at the top? If you measure from that down to the bottom hole that will give a better confirmation.

I can cut the adjuster bar to suit the middle of the range needed.
Soz, only just got round to checking this....looking at a pre strip down picture it would appear the adjuster bolt was around 25-30mm from the very top of the adjustment so it would put it around 250mm bolt to bolt. If that is ok then I will get a paypal payment to you straight away.

Many thanks, John

Ooh that's longer than usual, let me see if I have a long enough rod.

Looking back through the thread it looks like KKSON was the same at 250mm if that helps

Hi Stewart, many apologies what I thought was one in stock turned out to be gone.
However I have all the parts in and enough hex bar to make 2 up right away, so let me know if that's OK.

John, I just measured mine and it's the same, 250mm bolt-bolt, I must have misremembered (or maybe I was remembering the length of the bar not the overall length.) Let me know if you're still interested.

I decided to take a beak between bashing my suspension and I've tapped the two adjuster bars, just need to polish them up and they should be away in a few days.

I have enough rose joint ends for about 5 more in case anyone else is interested.

Stewart's one was too long for his car so I've made him a smaller one - which means the original is available in stock if anyone wants one.

Plus I have drilled one more bar and have more bar to make three more, let me know if you want one for BBWF (I can even fit it for you!)
