James Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Anyone got any Mk1 rear trailing arms?Anti roll bar subframe?Anti roll bar bits? (I've got the bar)Old front struts that I can butcher to use with my Koni?Probably loads more actually... just need to think of it... basically anything that I might want to clean up and/or rebush before I tear the car apart - makes it quicker just to swap bits.

Jason Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 James - check you nearside rear shock, the car has a definate mismatch in the rear dampers and a tendancy to "shimmy" as you drive - oh and maybe check your oil, the front of my car is covered in it :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I already have a set of Koni to go on it - so no worries there - I knew they were knackered!The thing doesn't drink any oil at all... at least not a drop in 600 miles - strange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrapman Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 JamesWhat is your time scale???Might have some stuff in a couple of months, need to keep the spares car mobile for a little while yet.I have suspicions about the front struts on my PI, so they may be substituted for the spares ones.CheersColin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I only want front struts so that they can be taken apart... so anything you have would do.My time scale is before the 10CR... a decent time before the 10CR preferably... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THink you were parked near the end of the row weren't you James? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I can't remember where we parked... it was somewhere in the middle I think?She does drop oil - but not that much...I really want to go home and check the oil now...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rear X-member and surrounding areas are reasonably clean. I can only surmise that I am leaving it behind me in a vapour trail of some sort ;D ;D -- was just wondering if you were suffering the same :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
