    Engine failure - thoughts...

    Looks like a carbon copy lol! Interesting on the replacement, was expecting it to be a fair bit more than this, will start having a shop about as seems conclusive that it’ll need a new one based on comments Ok thanks mate, was still warming the car up so hadn’t hit the limiter at all, but it...

    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    Just thought I’d update the thread as I’ve now fitted the tow wires. I bought eyelet / shackles that are probably overkill, but will keep for now. Fairly straightforward just drilled 16mm hole in chassis and then used two 3mm steel plates either side and bolted the whole thing together.

    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    Right so done some research tonight and ordered m16 80 HT lifting eyes, 12mm shackles, 3x50x50mm steel plates and m16 nuts / washers. Also got the bumper off this morning and identified where I’m going to fix them to (similar position to Tom but obviously without the custom plate to bolt into)...

    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    Tom did you weld the eyelets in or bolted onto the chassis - also looks like that’s a custom plate you’ve attached it to is that right? Was hoping it would be a slightly less involved job! Matt

    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    has anyone done this to recommended standard yet e.g 2 x front and rear with M10 bolt or higher I’m not sure if I’m just being thick, but really struggling to get my head around how I’m going to properly secure them and can’t find much advice online Any advice / examples? Matt

    Refitting o/s driveshaft, advice needed...

    So shouldn’t have been greased? Even though it came greased?

    Refitting o/s driveshaft, advice needed...

    Ok thanks, did manage to get it on but like I say not without a significant amount of brute force. Wouldn’t have expected there to be any horizontal movement though, even if it is only 1-2mm (once the plate is in this stops any movement but suspect that is not what it’s there for!)

    Refitting o/s driveshaft, advice needed...

    Hi, Replaced o/s driveshaft today, I’ve got it done but two questions: 1st: the new shaft did not go on easy at all, I’ve had to absolutely whack it to get it all the way onto the gearbox, has anyone else experienced this? I cleaned everything and new shaft was greased (Renault re-furb from...

    PMS strut / top mounts for tric trophy production class?

    Thanks Tony for clarifying, I do think the wording in the regs could be a little clearer to be fair. Think it will be coming off initially rather than pro+! Matt
