if not...
well the rack and new track rod ends was £88 but thats with a £15 surcharge, there fittin the rack for about £40 for me, puttin some pads on aswell so possibly £50-£60 final bill for labour
well its in the garage now, checked everythin over and we went with replacing the rack, there doin it atm
when they disconnected the old one though it was really floppy at the ends
go on http://www.mytyres.netwww.mytyres.net mate an have a look on there
your local Motor World should have pretty decent prices on Yokohama tyres at the moment so give em a ring
put the best set of tyres on the back........if its your fronts that need changin, get em changed an then swap...
jus put some pipe into it
however, there is like a thermostat flap on the air box so you would have to gut that out to get 2 genuine feeds, otherwise one will be shut all the time because of the flap
considering buying a buffer
like the idea of the Meguairs one thats portable but its £100 !!!
we sell some at work that are £25 and i had a play with one today and it seems ok.........
is there REALLY that much difference between the cheaper buffers and the likes of the Meguairs one ?
