    To be honest, I don't know if I can be arsed with the grief at the minute... Won't get me anywhere apart from blowing off some steam and getting more stressed. I certainly won't want them to be putting it right.

    They'd undersealed everywhere... I guess the mot'er had done some scraping.
  3. dr_broon
    Total PIA. The jacking points were one of the things that I knew needed doing first, from trying to jack it up and them just folding! Yeah, the underseal was done by the garage doing the welding, so my usual mechanic didn't spot it - his ramp lifts the chassis, but the garage doing the mot's ramp used the jacking points. Apparently he noticed the hole when checking the bushes, and the pokey tool went straight through.

    So, tubs went for her mot today, and would have passed if it hadn't needed welding doing... Yes..... Fooking welding. After being in getting welding done for about 3 months! Rear jacking points and a hole in the chassis! Needs two new front springs as well, but that's no big deal. Gutted

    Oh, and you can buy them direct from j&r from their website.

    I used a j&r driveshaft when mine snapped, but the mechanic fitted it, so don't know about the damper. Quite a few people have used them over the years though, so hopefully someone can shed some light on it.

    So, how's everyone getting on with the new way of life? Personally I'm working from home, but then have been most of the time anyway for about 6 months so no big change there. Will be interesting when the 'home school' starts next week though. Hope that everyone's well and keeping in touch with the world however they can

    Is it something that rover / MG could be raided for?
  18. dr_broon
    That is crackers!

    Even getting the winter tyres on tubs' 15s makes the ride feel plush.... Being on standard suspension must make it feel like a limo!
  20. dr_broon
    Those wheels cleaned up alright t Quite like the look of them... Especially with the blue h centre cap.
  21. dr_broon
    Not sure, will be calling tomorrow for an update, but I think it's a week or two off MOT time.

    That's an engine bay to be proud of Jake.

    Hi bud, nice to see you again. How's it going? Have you still got the civic?
  24. dr_broon
    So out of interest, just dug out my old ones, and the studs are more evenly spaced. Not sure if it would make a difference, but it feels like it should make for a more even force. I used to have to be extra careful with the one without the cap.

    Congrats!
