Yeah sweet, yeah its going to be pre booked and Ill be going the most direct route
Awesome, yeah Ill make sure I have all the details and things to hand before I set off
Awesome cheers! Would you define conformation, as a txt message as proof? As its my mates cousins place thats doing it? Im going to give the garage my number plate etc just incase
Booking my MOT for next monday, Im Insured on my car but It wont be taxed or MOT'd obviously, Am I still ok to drive it myself to a pre-booked MOT appointment? Did a few searches and it goes round in circles with people saying yes and people saying no, anyone clear this up for me?
Cheers
Doesn't really make sense :s considering we are all on a clio orientated forum! I can sort of see what you mean like but its only petrol its going to get wasted anyway, and we are driving down with the people from round here and meeting up with others en-route, and it a change of scenery
Yeah...
Yeah I had to opt for a blowtorch worked a treat on the n/s, but o/s still wouldnt budge :S so I had to cut the nut off, no damage was done to the inner rod by doing so, so Im just replacing both nuts with new ones tomorrow
haha yeah glad you have them ;) going to pop to halfrauds now see if they have any longer ones!
Thanks for the tips/advice anyway, Ill do an update once Ive attempted them again
Yeah tried wire brushing! Ill give the wire brush and some more penetrant spray ago again today before I get the blowtorch out ! If i had a bit of a longer reach socket I could clamp the tie rod and get the impact gun on it but none of my "long reach" sockets are "long" enough
Yeah ill take it easy if I use heat! yeah ball joint is connected to strut! Its a strange one like I just automatically thought with the retaining nut seized inplace the new tre's would just goto the same point and be spot on but the new ones need about another 2-3 rotaions compaired to the old ones
I ment penetrant spray* yeah iIleft it a while to get to work! lol aii ill try heating it up tomorrow! If all else fails ill just cut it off and replace it with a new nut
replaced the tre's on my cup but the locking nut that tightens up against them is seized in place so I cant adjust them further in, and cant get it to budge, tried brute force, wd-40, repentant spray and still no joy?
any other suggestions? as im a bit stuck
Sorry if wrong section
Just going to get some silicone now then will get it on! Aii ill do a vid when I get back will have to be a stationary one like as brakes aren't bleed yet
Too loud for you without centre box? Yeah god your going to end up paying twice as much changing it all
Yeah same think it finishes...
The cutout isnt finished yet, needs to be made a tiny bit bigger, was just so I could get the bumper back on, and the surround is sat infront of me, didnt have anything to bond it securely in place with until tomorrow
