Sailed through mot today :thumb: I have also noticed a slight oil leak coming from my oil filter given it a bit of a birl see if that stops it. Going back to winter one when I had the car that was the year the suspension got an overhaul so just to try and capture it all in one place heres abit of a summary
Bilstein HD and design Tek springs
Media blast front arms etc
Clean rear arms
new handbrake cables and shoes
new rear wheel bearings
powder coat anti roll bars back and front
fit new drop links rear
Fit four pot calipers on rear
replace all bushes with powerflex
A bit of a heads up to anyone contemplating new shocks and springs which was my original intention however as usual once you start digging into a 25 year old car as we all know the shopping list grows.
Well another couple of jobs done tonight, got the gearbox oil changed after finally getting the filler plug out a bit of soaking with rost off ice which is a great product if you havent used it and a bit of persuasion with a chisel and bobs your uncle I went with opie`s recommendation
