Need Reatta Headlamp Parts

Recommended Posts

I need a headlight motor and all the linkage that goes with it.

The one I have won't come up. It will go down. If I pull it up by hand while the headlight motor is still running I can pull it up by hand but after the headlight motor quits running after a few seconds it won't come up at all. Let me know how much you want for your headlight. Please reple to:

Sounds like you just need some rollers. Not difficult if not rusty, hardest part is removing the two lower headlamp bucket bolts. Most likely it could use a new barneycrank also.

Less likely but possible if have not operated like this for too long is that it just needs the bellcrank nut tightened. Takes a 10mm box end but can be done without removing anything. Worth a try.

BTW the left and right motors are not interchangable. Anyone know if the right drive gear can be removed without pulling the armature ?

Don't remember the details, but I put 2 Barney Kits on a friend's '90 without pulling the armature. One side (probably right), was harder to remove the gear, but we did it.... Jim

I have retro-fits of the OEM crank arm available. A CNC machined mild steel insert is press fit and bonded into a similarly machined cavity in the crank arm. This retro-fit retains the OEM look of the crank arm. Your needs have probably been taken care of now but let me know if I can help.

Properly lubed, the link arm spherical bushings never seem to go out but I do have OEM links.

Good morning. I have retro-fit OEM crank arms available and they are excellent. I machine out the rounded out section of he crank arm and put a mild steel insert in - press fit and bonded. Allows you to retain the OEM look. Sell them for $68.00 each and they have been very well received. Welcome any questions that you may have. Shortly (next wseek) will have my re-design of the OEM crank arm - formed of 1/4" mild steel and CNC machined. I will have the " bumpers" in about 20 days or so and they will be furnished free to buyers of the retro-fit or the re-design.
