These are what I fitted to my 172 Cup http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FTR5277-FIRST-LINE-STEERING-RACK-END-L-R-RENAULT-CLIO-II-2-0I-16V-/310852814302?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item48604585de

I've done the same job on my 172, I ended up doing the top mounts and bearings on the front but just the shocks and springs on the rear.

That was satisfying, wish I hasn't wasted so much time now with the fan spanner. Job done and I've still got my fingers!

So, I'm in the middle of changing the inner Tie/Track Rods as the TREs are seized. I thought I'd easily remove the rod, but can't get the drivers one out. So I've bought a track rod removal tool, however, to get it on I have to get off the seized TRE! So I've bought an angle grinder. This...

With the Fiesta ST being available at £14,796 it shows how little the price has moved, I guess they have actually got cheaper?

One rod changed, the other side TRE undone, just need to swap the rod tomorrow. Finally seeing the end of this rather annoying set of jobs.

I've sent him a text. Might be worth the drive back to a booked MOT, MOT expired in October

It's got no MOT, no tax, doubtful history, etc.

After it being sat in the garage feeling sorry for itself since October with a cross threaded track rod end, I finally managed to find 5 minutes to get the nut crackers out and release the nut. Hopefully this weekend, I'll find the time to change the rods and put the car back on 4 wheels again.

Just watch for the seats to come up for sale with no back story

Mine mirrors my main policy NCB and is insured for £300, without agreed value. Give Greenlight a call.

If our main car is a confirmed write off this week, I'll probably be selling mine so keep a eye on the for sale section. You should really become a member as this is a wanted advert

Nein, BHP is in my garage getting a bush & steering refresh and tucked up for winter. From last weekend:

Battle is for half of excess or having excess recovered, also for the fact I know I didn't do anything wrong, sometimes it's principle. I doubt it'll make any difference to my policies, as although I've not looked I'm 99% sure I have protected NCB It appears our car is going to be a write off...

You can push the ARB down by levering against the subframe

Push the ARB down with something, I use a crow bar

Shame, if you bought some and sold as unneeded...

In my 205, I couldn't even change the radio!

The middle lane is so the roundabout maintains two lanes both entrance & exit. Here is the exit I completely understand about those who turn right on a straight on lane, this is just a roundabout joining two two lane roads to one dual carriageway and trying to keep capacity on the roundabout...

So, I'm out and about with the wife last weekend. We get to this roundabout We're taking the second exit, effectively the right exit. Traffic is queuing on the lane with the filter arrow and the right lane, nothing in the middle lane. We use the middle lane, get 3/4 around the roundabout and...

Did you buy the cams from -J-?

I was interested in the set up you bought, but disregarded the ECU, is it safe to use as it isn't tuned to your engines characteristics? The fuel system, engine condition, etc?

Depends what's on the other end,it's an 8 pin mini din lead

I think you are right, I think that washer has now been incorporated into the top nut

Then it may be hiding in others and nothing to say he's checked it, put a post on his page

Are you sure you've asked on the correct Facebook page as I only see 4 posts and none about suspension?

Once you are at the point to remove the wishbones, you can easily swap suspension - the top mounts go with the strut. The track rods are a bit fiddly but shouldn't add a great deal of time each side, I've no idea on the bushes. However, I'm just doing the track rod ends and they are seized so...

I always refer to a post in the Renault Wolverampton Helen thinking of this job, it's a random request but has all the prices apart from shocks and springs, 172 prices Wishbones £60 each Steering rack bushes £24 each Track rods £40.86 each Track rod ends £37.94 each ARB Bushes £7.80 each

Wow £180 for both? Good deal for Joe! Let me know if it falls through and you'll take £100 for the wheel

How much just for the wheel?
