killed a couple of hours today - zx_volcane - 20-04-2012

Spot the difference?

Seized fairly solid.

Not risking pulling the arms and having bearings fall apart today.

Least it didn't rain too much :/

Anyone recommend a good refurb kit, might aswell drop the beam and give it the once over.

Noticed both brake flexis need doing too which is an arse under the car.

Erm nope? I see no differences but from what you've written I guess you've had a go at torsion bars?


Re: killed a couple of hours today - Bananalad - 20-04-2012

Any pictures of the whole car? I agree with 4way no difference?

How hard is it to get the joke people? lol Bad luck with the torsion bars dude, had the same happen to me twice now lol.


Re: killed a couple of hours today - zx_volcane - 20-04-2012

errrgh same with an attempt to swap out the front struts and lower, edit title to "wasted best part of a day"

should be such an easy job, but this car seems to be fighting me today.

That's exact same picture?


Re: killed a couple of hours today - Poodle - 20-04-2012

Fucks sake, read the thread matt! Tongue


Re: killed a couple of hours today - Tom - 20-04-2012

I think matts getting at the same thing as me where the pictures are labelled before and after but they're exactly the same picture Wink


Re: killed a couple of hours today - Dan! - 20-04-2012

Yes they are the same photo, and the point being made there is that he spent hours working on it and didn't manage to change a thing :roll:

Exactly this, I at least thought it was going to be before, well one way, and after wheel a different way.

I understand he couldn't work on it as it was seized but I spent about 5mins feeling like I was playing an impossible game of spot the difference Tongue


Re: killed a couple of hours today - Dan! - 20-04-2012

That Matt, is because you are a bit dense Tongue

soz for the confusion, and in all fairness I did resist replying to look a bit harder for the subtle differences.

i'll set up a project thread as soon as I manage to get anything done to it, so far I have some nice pics of seized torsion bar ends


Re: killed a couple of hours today - zx_volcane - 30-04-2012

This rear beam can get bent

Had another go at lowering, and bashed the crap out of the arms to no avail, didn't budge a mm

but then I heard jacked up rears are the new 'in', so all good ... :/ :cry:
