    Hi,
    I have a V12 Jaguar and I want to fit an Audi gearbox 6 speed, so I am looking for an adapter. Also I am looking for a friction damper front and rear, the one they use for a auto union car.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thank you    ​

    Posting it in every section annoys people rather than gets help.

    The really early 2CV had friction dampers as well. Auto Union parts are probably pretty hard to come by...

    Thank you Jay-Young for letting me know, because I am new to this and didn't realise, so thanks again!

    Thank you, I will have a look. Yes the Auto Union parts are very hard to come by, but I was also looking for the measurements of the Friction Dampers so I could get some made, but even the measurements are hard to come by. Thanks again!

    No worries, they're a pretty cool design as you can alter the stiffness of the damping.
