QUICK REPLY NEEDED PLEASE!!!

Just come to fit my rippthrough lower brace, but I have a power steering pipe that runs under the engine in the way. If I give it a bit of force I can just get it on, will that be ok?

Here we go.


Re: GUIDE: Fitting Upper & Lower Strut Braces - kentiiboii - 25-09-2014

Sorted it, someone had bolted the pipe wrong way round before hand.

Yeah that pipe was a bit low on mine and rattled on the brace until I adjusted where it sat


Re: GUIDE: Fitting Upper & Lower Strut Braces - kentiiboii - 26-09-2014

Yeah once I noticed where it was wrong the brace went on fine.
Didn't think it should of been that low.

Those sometimes get bolted on too low even when they're up in the right place - there's quite a lot of slop on the bolt holes, so it's worth checking it's as far up as it'll go before fitting a brace anyway Smile

You still making these Phil?

I will be when I get chance - I've got some steel bent up ready, just need to weld up some ends and chop and weld the lot together, things are a bit hectic atm, lost my nan about 6 weeks back and my grandad's in a bit of a mess, so I'm on babysitting duty/suicide watch at the minute, which is taking up most of my spare time.

I saw it, and the other one Big Grin

I've got enough for 10-12 braces but am busy with the buggy and some other work for the next week or two, I'll see if I can knock some up the weekend after next.
