Get some pics up fella so we can see your damage .
When I fitted mine , I didn't do half as much damage as yours sounds .
I cut mine and positioned it accordingly to suit best as it would go .
I run 20m spacers on track , I won't use the bolt to hub type as these can work loose out on track through certain conditions . I prefer the spacers that go over the studs . Only 4 nuts to keep an eye on . [emoji106]
Not had any issues with the spacers and had them a few years now.
Sorry to hear about you now being unemployed . Chin up I'm sure something will come your way shortly .
You say up until march was a quiet period - have you forecasted for that period ?
Hi Russ - liking your diet process on the loom - did you remove all necessary wires and cut back to the plugs on the UCH ?
Also the rear loom - have you taken the loom out all the way back to the multi plugs at each front door and then on to the UCH ?
Have you any diagrams to hand by any...
I've did the same yesterday - I did a mock up in cardboard and then cut out the plastic to the shape , made it a lot easier but long winded.
Not a bad job I thought .
The 3 pin purple pin would have gone to the air con pressure switch , the 2 pin white connector plugs in to the rad fan motor . There is another 2 pin black connector near the purple one that would be for the resistor to run cooling fan at half speed - that's only for functioning air con system...
Not a major issue changing this seal , once it's removed the process is quite easy fitting the new one .
Offer up the seal to the gearbox and tap around the edge evenly so the seal goes in straight .
With regard to how far - measure the seal depth before you remove it if you can , then you'll...
IMHO , the only reason I'm doing it is because I want to eliminate any PAS pump and prevent fluid failures under the bonnet that would then wreck the alternator , "belts" engine and generally don't want oil spills out on track that would cause a problem .
Years gone by - we used to cut off that connection and replace it with a new spade connector . Cured it every time .
More than likely it's over heated over time and is either dirty or current overload burnt which is why it fails.
I've had creaking from within the rack before . It turned out to be a dry rack and pinion on the left side of the rack.
I removed the n/s rack gator and lubed rack bed as necessary and all was good .
Worth a try as its cheap.
