Re: leaf springs-part number
There is a supplement for the 12 tourer at the end of the 1939-47 parts list. Due to the lighter weight of the 12 tourer, part numbers 07967 and 07968 that are actually 10hp springs, were used.

Re: External oil filter
The Wipac bypass oil filters (they were fitted to 1950 Rover75 -cyclops) are very difficult to find. Similar but smaller filters (ACzr1) were fitted to some Austin cars.

Re: Rover 12 clutch replacement
Have you spoken to the supplier? If memory serves, 1936 cars had a pressure plate with 4 fingers. If the new clutch has 3 fingers, some modifications may be needed. I haven't come across the shims advice before.

Re: Sump removal
See my post above (15th April) in short yes but the conclusion is no! "The filter cover and filter." There is no separate filter cover. The brass cover is threaded into the boss in the sump. The filter behind it engages with the oil pump pickup. There is a very helpful illustrated parts list publish...

Re: 1947 cars optional extras, is Les Spencer on here?
Hello Simon,
Les is not on the forum, but I spoke to him about the setup on his car. He tells me that he bought the frame from Freddy Boulton. I have a suitable nave plate( you advertised for one) if you are interested?

Mike Maher, Chairman
