    Rear shock mounts on 172 Clio

    Or see if someone who's breaking a car will sell some but they may be in poor condition although the ones inside the boot will not have been in the elements so use those with yours.

    Hi if you put the genuine part number in micksgarage that should fine the right replacements but when you look at the length they are 295mm and need to be 320mm. Hopefully @renaultpartsdirect can clear it up.

    My 172 Cup refresh/sprint car

    I know, hoping a few may turnout with the new class structure. I simply do not have the cash to build a car that would be at the front. I will refresh all the suspension brakes etc and build towards 1B next year. I plan to do a full championship so being out there is better than sitting events...

    My 172 Cup refresh/sprint car

    No cant change springs you could put uprated non adjustable dampers on but not seen next years regs yet so may have removed them. Only thing to change is brake pads, remove airbags fit bucket seats and cage etc. Obviously the weight penalty of a cage is no good unless you plan on going into...

    I can't sadly as it's running in the standard class so they will have to stay for now.

    My 172 Cup refresh/sprint car

    Then as it was getting dark I moved on to the rear discs. I bought new spacers as the originals were missing , I've ordered a new brake fitting kit that's not arrived in time so just assembled the near side for now. Think that's it for this year so Happy new year to anyone who's bored enough to...

    So second time around correctly built up and fitted ! Even managed without spring compressors to fit them back to the arms. Need a couple of new bolts as the top ones are passed their best.

    My 172 Cup refresh/sprint car

    Managed a couple of hours today so fitted the front dampers and springs with new top bearings and bump rubbers. Note the obvious mistake on first fit lol

    My 172 Cup refresh/sprint car

    So on to the front, I removed the wheels, hub bolts and removed the track rods ends to find some play in the inner steering arms ! so now I need to replace those as well as the top mounts, TRE and bottom ball joints. Its starting to add up the ££ already. There seems to be no definitive answer...
