Re: someph-ing different...........
yep ive got them on my car. quite sad that i remember the part number too, pm me your number and ill give you call on them tomorrow.
so if i torqued them up they would be ok even though freshly painted?
fred - what nm do they need to be torqued too?
what do i need to buy a breaker bar or something? i know it uses it a 19mm socket for the bolt and ive got one of them.
apparently so but i've always swapped between the wheels just using the wheel brace to the tightest i can get it and have never had any probs until putting the newly painted wheels on.
wouldn't the copper grease act as a lubricant so therefore making it looser or does it have the reverse...
bit of a random one.
refurbed my oz f1 wheels other day ( not happy with them and am going to have to pay to get them done properly).
anyways i put them on friday night, took it for a quick drive up the dual carriageway and then back home. all seemed fine.
took it to work, and was ok...

i had pretty much the same problem other day. bloody sary i tell thee but must of been worse for you being on track!
Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project
so did the wheel actually come off completley or just loose on the hub so with every rotation the bolts were coming off more and more?
can get on the site ok on the missus laptop, but for some reason cant view pics or anything?
got the list of vehicles and when you click in to them different sections, ie engine, brakes etc but no pictures. any ideas?
rear wheel bearing for a clio with drum brakes for your model is £11.50 plus vat retail from gsf. so if that price is fitted - and as you know it has to be pressed into the drum, i don't think thats a bad price at all tbh.
