Pretty sure interstate are no more. I was looking into them few months back as their on the MSA tyre list and not one Id heard much about

Standard 172 manifold can be removed via top. 182 manifold from below and requires subframe to be lowered

To describe the noise, it is a light knock every few seconds

Just replaced the gearbox, flywheel, clutch and release bearing last week and have a noise on idle which disappears when clutch is depressed which leads me to think its the release bearing. Unless gripper diff's can be noisy on idle (unsure if they see any rotation in neutral? Maybe a daft...

Running a set of 15's on my phase 1

I had this problem 18 months ago, went for the proline kit mentioned above in black. After that though there was a few people saying they could still get them, but quite a few well known parts suppliers on here all said NLA

Schroth B2a eyelet on the lower seat belt mount on the outer Inner, drill through the exhaust runnel and spreader plate underneath Cant help with the crotch strap as just using 4 point

I just got the range the other week before all our bad weather up North and not had a chance to try them out yet. Think Im going to use both hybrid and normal shampoo, use hybrid every second wash or something. Always get good service from Alan and Eoin

Its ended up in North East Scotland, quite local to me. Older guy has gotten it

I had a mirco rts seat at first and then found out that their known for a wide fit and wouldnt fit with door bars. Even with extra holes drilled in the jon foz frames Then changed to motordrive seat which was narrower and a better fit, although still tight and still not 100% centre but miles...

Decided on a sealey set in the end rather than forking out for Bluepoint / Snap on https://www.sealey.co.uk/product/5637770847/12pc-reversible-combination-ratchet-spanner-set As for torches, led auto lamps do one with a dock but its smaller than most normal inspection lamps

Because its me thats buying them and thats what I prefer😂😂 Rather have the rigidity and know the spanner will be where I want it to be when reaching into awkward places and able to put force on it without it having a mind of its own

Want to try stay away from the flex ones and go with a fixed

Whats everyone using for ratchet spanners? Currently got halfords straight ones, not the best for access so want to go for the slightly angled ones. Been looking at mac tools and others but starting to sway towards bluepoint ones https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173615907160

As said, just advertise as is. New owner can run the risk or get the belts done themselves with whoever they want to do them. As long as its reflected in the price

Similar method to eddie, if I dont need to work on the rear I often just leave the rear on ramps If only using one jack sometimes have to do the front bit by bit to save the axle stands moving. If they have a good hold on the chassis leg and fit in the stand good then shouldnt see much movement

Seen alot of recovery guys reccomend the noco jump packs, halfords stock them too. Not sure if you can get anything off them with a trade card

Good to see one in standard form, I had a silver W reg VTS as my 3rd car back in 2008

Priced the garage style workshop 7mm tiles, coming in at £930 for the area I need. Bit more than I was planning unfortunately Mototile was £540 Costco around £730

Any idea where the staining has came from? Is it a fault of the tile? Thanks for all the feedback, will check out some of them

Looking for your thoughts and experiences with garage flooring. Were moving house soon and getting some flooring down in the garage is top of the list of priorities before it ends up full of stuff. Plan is to have the ph1 at home in the garage for working on so must be able to withstand a jack...

Couldnt think of any big purchases but saved £16 on gear oil so least I got some benefit out of it

Ifor williams have a register of owners, no logbook etc but just give them serial number and proof of purchase and they transfer ownership

Current setup, using the disco sport family car Best setup was my 3.2 shogun

Yeah doesnt get me when some folk say must have belts done. Just factor it into the price. I didnt get mine done before sale for that exact reason.

Threads like this make me regret just selling my standard 172 cup and it isn't even away yet! Felt it was wasted just not getting used due to other priorities and cash can be used elsewhere

Dont think anyone seems to do a mount for that one. Maybe the other 3 take most of the load and that one just absorbs some of the movement? If going solid mounts there will be minimal movement anyway

They wont weigh you when they pull you but they dont go by actual weight. They go by the plated weight. Even if your trailer is plated for 2100kg and you only have a 1000kg clio on it, your down as 2100kg

Iv just ordered one of these incase you haven't already got one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/383675931859

Ariel base isnt too bad a job, my poor reception forced me into it. Was horrendous. Just got to be careful and not prise the headlining down too far and be prepared to work restricted
