  1. Looking good! Massive difference. How were the bushes in the banana arms? It's a never ending saga isn't it - I started with that brace ended up replacing the bearings, outer/inner rods, multiple patches of rusted component and still not done
  2. Spotted a black zed at Weyhill petrol station, Andover. I was walking in to get milk and slyly admired from afar.
  3. Nice work! What brand were they? Irwin? Normally I end up snapping the bolt shaft before rounding the head Chinesium much? Mine's been on axle stands for the last three weeks waiting for the droplinks to be adjusted under load and the outer tierods tightened ... give it another 2 months and I might get around to it X5 arms and e92 subframes are first jobs. Sad.
  4. Would heatgun work better? Or does it need to be universally heated.
  5. Looks good, likewise to the cautious wrecking. I've got my MOT booked for next week. Hopefully it passes!
  6. Hydrate80 rather than Kurust. Does great on classic car tests and recommended lots on detailing-world and other forums, and my own experience. Are there any drains around there that could have broken or come loose? Not got a 'vert but had similar on various cars incl. X5 with a busted sunroof drain.
  7. Good to see and hear it's still going - it's nice that lineage like this can continue to be found and exist!
  8. Nice! How did you do the 'rebuild' clean - compressed air and qtips?
  9. Replaced two years ago using ones from zmanalex - had to get a shop to press the bearings on and pull the old off but they're working really well. Replacing the fronts at the moment.
  10. Front Left and Right set of suspension corners - upper arms, lower arms, knuckle and hub/bearings. Also contains speed sensor and plastic cap. Bushes will need replacing on some of the arms. £200 per side, £350 for the pair. Postage £25 I ordered these from zmanalex but they proved unneccessary as I was able to get out my lower ball joint from the knuckle.
  11. Awesome news! Hoping to put mine in a couple weeks once bits from Alex and Coz have arrived.
  12. Fingers crossed!! Highly.recomment the Bilt Hamber Dynax UB/UC for underneath and the S50 for cavities. I'll send some pics tonight of how my arches and underneath look as I have my knuckles and tie rods off at the moment.
  13. Looking good, reminisent of the work I'm doing on mine. Taps for the threads are a godsend - so often they're fine threads though so watch out. Unfortunately all the work I got done in this thread ( ) has mostly started to get rust inside again and rust stains leak out. Dynax S50 to the rescue
