Deleted User Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Very busy with work at the moment in Manchester as you can imagine.Can I ask that those not already sent me their list to do so asap. 18 hour days is the must until Monday, so what little ZOMBIE time off I have is small. So please help me get this list sorted, get your list in so I am not chasing peopleRob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJP Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 RobWhy not ask people for a 'negative' list to save your time. i.e. if they aren't carrying any significant spares other than consumables (oil, water, brake fluid) to reply that they have read your message but will not be providing a spares list.Just a thought to save you workSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quick and easy to do - I can give you details of the mod if you don't know it already.I have a full bearing set not on the basis that I can change them but that a garage can. I doubt a garage in Davos, say, could source them for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may add a few bits but I know I have a spare bairing set, a spare head gasket and a spare front brake hose so there is your list of spares.
