Re: Lower trailing arm parts
Please can You keep us updated on this Will?... I've been trying to get some bushes out & failed so far I will do Peter. The parts should be here this week but it may be next month before the car goes in for the work due to other commitments. I am guessing some form of puller is required? The gent ...

Re: front floor heater controls
If it's a late Type 3, you need these I think: http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k99/chino_uk/fasty/4837AC53-A95D-40D0-B1CB-E6B6D6F08837_zpspq5ckncx.jpg You kinda clamp the cable between the fittings(I seem to remember swearing a lot trying to do this), and get this: http://i86.photobucket.com/album...

Re: Lower trailing arm parts
Thanks Broady, interesting reading. My upper trailing arms seem reasonably in spec after adjustment, but when on the shake plates yesterday I noticed both lower arms had movement, so will be looking to source bearings/bushes and seals to renew.

Lower trailing arm parts
Am I right in thinking lower arm needle bearings and bushes are same as Type 1? What parts will I need if I'm replacing, inner, outer, grease seals? Thanks in advance

Re: Outer window seal/scraper
Just to update I'm in touch with ISP about sourcing the various parts(I'm after a few other bits so may as well do a bulk package). My drivers side window is marked from a rivet by the looks of it, has never bothered me enough to change previously, but if I'll be stripping and changing all the peris...

If that's the case I may as well see if I can source a replacement for that too, it's looking quite old and dry now.s.unsworth wrote: ↑16th August 2017 - 11:30amThinking about it isn't it 1/4 light out as well to do the job ?
