British Bikes / veteran gearbox oil seal felt

So... where might one find the proper felt for a Sturmey Archer gearbox shaft seal? On teardown, all is well but the seal felt, and I would just as soon use the proper material. Cheers, Rick

I don't have an issue with the box at this time (that I have found) but being an experienced mech, I've learned to find reference material before digging into something I'm unfamiliar with (example: the notorious "sproing" heard as a part goes flying off into oblivion during disassembly). A parts manual is very useful as a guide and will suit me well. Are any parts available for these, clutch being one, and can a chain to belt be changed to chain to chain? This box shifts well and the shafts seem to turn properly with no bind or slop, bearings seem servicable. Shaft end play? How much? Pics of the unit, and the 88cc engine that will run it. Maytag washer engine.

Would any of you know where I could obtain a repair manual for a Sturmey Archer 2 speed gearbox, # TS11973, I believe was produced in 1920. Cheers, Rick
