  1. A few years ago I bought new engine mounts but never fitted them. I now can’t find them …. Mine are decidedly ropey and I wondered what people’s experience was of the latest offerings? Any suggestions of a decent quality source?
  2. Thanks , A group of triumph friends discussed these and it was decided that original was best. I’ve also spent more than enough….. further spending needs to slip under the management radar 😂
  3. I did ….. then I got them out again. It’s all tidy now though. 😁
  4. Car currently in many bits with lots of new shiny bits in boxes( or on order).
  5. Excellent stuff….. she just needs someone that knows what they’re doing to help her get the best from it… you know anyone? 🤣

    Wow that’s a bit precise! Easy bits first….. car already has a motolita,poly bushed throughout, 1144 pads, aluminium rack mounts. Im not entirely sure which springs it has…. Some old guy gave em to me? They’re red……… Like the sound of the 13 row cooler…..will it make it faster? Adjustable radius arms are they really worthwhile?

    No but they look cool with rose jointed ends rather than the rubber 😂

    I was under the impression Nick that the spax had a lower ….hmm technical term 🤷🏼‍♂️Bit the spring sits in ? And made it sit too low?

    I’m not overly convinced I need a cooler….in 20 years I’ve only wrecked 3 engines 😏
  14. Ok I’m saying upgrades as I’ve not got a clue what else to call it. Fundamentally there’s nothing wrong with my car… other than things getting tired, like me to be honest this week! Ive decided I want to use my car for the rbr again, last did it in 2016. I'm almost sure it could do it tomorrow but almost isn’t enough. The rear shocks are tired ,the fronts are the same age and make the car sit very low.( Spax all round) The soft top is a mohair that’s shrunk. I fancy some trunnion less vertical links. Id like to fit some decent anti roll bar links. Also it’s got horrid rattly rear wheel barrow silencers that I fitted almost 20yrs ago. I’m thinking of a single pipe exit….. I’d appreciate any views on each of these items. Best sources and perhaps reason why and why not?
  15. Jason they’re my stripes and I’ve had them ages, I didn’t earn them I know coz my mate did them for free. Oh n that Scottish bloke copied 😝
