Herefordshire mate, not really in a position to take that kind of hit really. I'd be better off letting them try again but that goes against my thoughts

Right this has dragged on so I'll be abridge this a bit. In September last year I agreed a price with a local powdercoaters to refurb my alloys inc. tyre removal and refitting, they did them, I paid cash and got a receipt. Less that 2 months later the surface crazed on one so I took it back...

Did you get these? What lengths were they from fitting to fitting out of interest?

Cracking work there mate, going to be super fresh when this is finished.

@RustyMojo most are 30 or 35mm M8 flange heads for the brake line brackets, fuel tank except for the beam bolts which are high tensile M10. Order some m8 stainless washers and penny washers for the fuel tank too to spread the load! I ordered M10 x 130 cap head bolts from Kay's on Ebay but the...

Why would a ph2 172 handbrake cable differ from a 182 I wonder

Only RS tax I believe

This one from ECP fitted my ph2 offside perfectly

Ph1 doors are no different to a ph2 surely

I used stainless button head bolts with stainless nylocs

Are 3D printers easier to use these days? I'm a bit of a technophobe but at the same time I want one. Pricey?

Bit of a boot floor refurb.

Not sure why they used 130mm any way, loads of exposed thread

The beam came out well but the powder coat chipped on the inside face where the 4x stub axle nuts meet. Obviously cleaned up the other face where my spacers meet. Whiteline bushes were a nice snug fit, just tapped home with a block of wood. I still think the Febi were oversized, no way were...

Refitting has hit a glitch!

I'll go for that, easy enough to torque them up a bit more if needed.

They are yes

If I'm reading it correctly it says 60nm for 6x bracket to shell bolts 70nm for 2x bush bolts

I cant find anything, I'm sure there was a guide with them in somewhere. Next to get it all aligned so I've not got one wheel stuck out, is it true the the bush bolt needs torquing with weight on the wheels?

I cant for the life of me find the torque settings for the 2 beam bolts and 6 bracket to body bolts. Anyone able to enlighten me?
