Have some pretty ugly pre-circlip, post-cable housing stop versions could trade....
thanks harvey sachs mcLean va what a coincidence I just started a solo effort to saparate these items from their brethren and sistern and can bring two large boxes for you to pour through at your convenience. Bring friends, there are many, but I have't the time to go through them. Sounds like you want to actually use one. The best shifting ones (in the years of customers' having better shifting) had the lip, so maybe you have a concours you might be entering.
What I'd like on trade in this zone would be an FD with the lower 'stop. or
one with a steel actuator arm for my timeline completion.No circlip needed for
me as long as it meets these criteria.
