GTA winter work

Lower ball joints now fitted.
Dont know if I should change the wheel bearings or not now...
Seems ive gone this far..what do you reckon ?

I would not bother unless they are making a noise lol

if they are not loose or noisy don't bother
you could always clean and repack with new grease if you are keen
only changed mine when I replaced the discs

Fair enough

Undersealed it today...its a shame that the previous garage decided to jack the car up on its seams.....its going to need welding underneath now to repair the damage they caused

Does it ride smooth with the eibach's,i have them on mine and it's pretty harsh,but someone told me it's the kyb gas a just shocks.

Not had a chance to take it out yet .doesnt appear to have lowered it that much so im presuming it will ride similar to before.
Ive put sensatrack on the front so it should soak up the bumps rather than bang over them.
Got kyb on the back but theres not a lot of weight over the rear

Was that autopontiac you would think they would know better

I know. .....

I expect its not had much attention until you got it john doing s good job

Dont let the rip off rogue near it again. Expert hole

Very true paul

Well today ive changed the oil and greased all the new bushes and fittings, so its almost ready for its first drive of the year.
There is a problem with the brake lights as they are very intermittent when the pedal is pressed I think it may be the switch at the pedal so theres a new one on order from rockauto. ..start there and work my way back.
Mot in march so hopefully Matt wont notice !!!!

I'm sure he wont, especially if he is distracted by a packet of chocolate biscuits

Thats what im banking on

Might hit the hazard button quickly when he says brakes

sure it will pass pauls red one did

Fitted the front wonder bar today....front end all complete...the socket fell off the handle and hit me on the forehead so now ive got a huge bruise on my head...trouble with getting old is your blood gets thinner and you bruise easier.
Brake light switch to fit tomorrow, hopefully that will cure the brake issue

then you need to drive it john

Test drive tomorrow hopefully. ..make sure nothing falls off so I'll be ok for the diner meet

take mine out tom i think for a spin
