I took my front bumper off tonight and noticed that the lower 2 fixings to the subframe and associated panel/plastic tray part are completely missing
can these be had seperately and my bumper repaired? or is it new bumper time?
thanks

I did same in my 172, pretty sure the central locking button on the console disables when the cars locked, least mine didn't work with a cane press and I know it pressed all the way down, I ended up getting the AA out but got close drving a wooden wedge to prise open the door then metal bar to...
I will post up as soon as they get back to me, as said this is only for the outer drop link bushes, but looking at how worn they are compared to the pivot bushes and inner bushes, I think the others should last about 20 cycles of drop link bush failures!lol!
yes remove, yes that's the sequence, also need to undo pinch bolt or 2x bolts holding lower ball joint to wishbone/hub
rubbers should be fine and press them out. then just weld round the outer edge, ensure you don't warp them too badly or bushes will be a pain to get back in
I would guess...
Just bought a slightly tired whiteline arb and the outer bushes are a bit worse for wear
plan is to freshen it up with some powdercoat and new outer bushes before fitting, question is, where can I get new bushes for it?
did a quick forum then google search but not turned up much, any...
welcome, love the old rolla, proper bit of kit and if it was me i'd be saving for the 86 but keeping the old skool as well ;)
hope you enjoy the clio, I think I have the same washer jet issue incoming on my 182 that's awaiting the road come November, been avoiding it and hoping I can fix it...
lovely work mate, i would love to do something like this, Brigsy on RTOC's 5 powered Extra Van van makes me piss as well, nowt like seeing a van hammer round a track :)
you can change your username yourself once a year from the user control panel accessed through the settings link at the top of the forum, then go into user profile ;)
no danger chap, as said could be a money spinner if you can keep it covert ops from the boss is all ;)
when you say its based on phase 1 172 centres, I spose just 4 chopped down of them would do it? just thinking I may try that on mine if it works!
I know the subject of inlets has been covered multiple times but I cant find a definitive answer and I'm bored of the search function having spent the last 20 fruitless minutes attempting to figure it out for myself.
basically I have a phase 1 172 (cable throttle) that I was going to remove...
so if you have the mold still, shouldn't take long to turn it into a little money spinner, I know i'd have a set and be willing to pay if the fit and finish is decent enough, the 2118's look trousers without centres, its a massive shock to me that they don't have any!
