That's frustrating. This chap is about my age (early 30s), works on mostly Japanese and German performance cars, organises road trips for his customers to all go to Nurburgring together in the cars that he's worked on and seems very in tune with the modified car scene judging by the way he talks and the type of work he does.Burbleboy said:Good luck with the suspension, looks like you've done homework on who to do your install.
I went with a reputable company in Scotland that build and set up rally cars for the last 30 odd years......
....they messed up my car as he couldnt get his head around the word 'stanced'
Do you actually have touch any control arms at the rear?Stevearcade said:Car went in this morning, but I've already got it back without them fitted . The bolts that run through the end of the control arm and bushes were seized to the bushes corroded. The first bolt snapped so they didn't touch the other. They managed to weld it locked in place so I can drive the car, and I've ordered replacement parts, hopefully should have them by Friday, so it's looking like next week now. Hey ho... this is life, keeping an older car on the road I guess. Bolts will seize, bushes will corrode.
Steve's car is 7th gen Tourer (CM2) which has trailing-arm suspension on the rearkrisdee said:Do you actually have touch any control arms at the rear?
I was pretty sure that to replace strut only stabiliser link need to be disconnected.
