Went in for MOT today - Fook!

Both front brake flexis.
Drop arm ball joint.
All 4 shock absorbers.
Radius arm bush.
Small patch to weld on me front N/S outrigger.

That's me weekend taken care of then....................bollix.

Blurry ell, good luck, Sunday might be cloudy...

i just had mine done lucky to get away with a lose headlight and a missing backbox even though i got a couple of very bald looking tyres and a bloody great hole in me crossmember .....good luck with ya jobs...let us know how it goes

well, I got all the bits from me local indie - £140 the lot - not too bad I spose.
Armstrong shockers and all the rest is Bripart stuff. still beggars can't be choosers I spose.

Mine wern't too bad. New exhaust, oil seal on back axel, front head light rattling around. I must say that its running much better now than when I got it a year ago.

You beeing an expert trewy, surely it'll be finished in time for tea...

I had 2 m.o.t's before i came back from switzerland because it went it to have front part of the chassis welded by the bumper, and out rigger welded,suspension mount welded. Seat belt mount needed attention. Hand brake tightening, new windscreen wiper motors. waste gate valve repaired.
And while they were at it i got them to put on a lift and new polybush set cos it had perrished. All in all came to just under £1000 with parts and labour

thought ya had checked it over treworgey???

ow dear. rear shocks wont take long, neither will the flexi's. ball joint is going to be an arse along with the radius arm bush... but im sure you know that allready.

enjoy yourself tomorrow!

3 shocks done plus 1 flexi.
only problem so far was 3 out of 4 studs shearing on the turret ring, necessitating a trip to Tamar 4X4 for 2 new ones (£3.95 each).
