Hello again! Can anyone tell me what the hole is for in the body work on the front of my 90? It’s in line with a drive pulley? See pic Is it for taking drive off the engine? Just curious! many thanks, Paul

Yes on this occasion I did know that, but it never hurts to mention these things as I am totally new to this game! I have got hold of a parts manual which is a god send :-)

Yes this video is better than the last. I have already brought some of the proper washers! My goodness what a difference! The ones that come with the shocks are terrible. No wonder they wear through. There is some rubbish being sold out there. Here are some pics to show the difference! I...

Yes that is what I used! Very good! Thank you!!

Hello everyone! Great news. Finally managed to get an impact driver and the drum release screw came straight undone! Happy days! Now I can investigate why that brake is sticking!! Thank you very much for all your help. I never new impact drivers or copper grease existed!!

Blinking welder never turned up.......drives me mad........don't know how these people stay in business! I will up date when I have found another one an have news! In the meantime i'll be continuing cleaning and painting the underside! What fun!!

That’s another way to fix it then! Brilliant! More options to discuss with the welder at the weekend:-). Thank you for sharing that :-)

Ok thank you. I have a local welder coming to have a look Sat morning. I’m hoping we can weld a washer in just like your example. Fingers crossed!! Thanks for letting me know your thoughts

Thank you everyone! :-) It might be a little while, but I will post updates on what happens next. Thanks again for all the replies they are all really helpful :-) Paul.

Yes as i'm not a welder and I've got to get someone in i'm going to see how much just to replace the whole bracket.......I have have no paint work to worry about !!!!

Ah! Thank you for that. I would not have realised that!

That’s a tidy job! Great example. That’s what I’ll aim for! Not being an engineer.......how did you do the countersink so accurately?

Ok Thank you both! That is great news :) I’ll have a google to see if I can buy one. Otherwise I’ll have to make one. You guys might be able to advise on something else. I have a suspension stop mount that has blown out due to rust and I need to get it off. Is angle grinding the best method...

Hello All! Just removed some very old rear shocks and on one of them the shock had worn through the washers and worn the mount on the axle. See picture. I was wondering what your thoughts were on whether or not it needs replacement or it will be ok with new washers etc? Many thanks in advance Paul

Thank you for this I will have a google and get some copper grease. :-)

No it's not out yet! I was looking at the back end while I was waiting for parts for the front end. Then the parts arrived and I've been working on the front end. It's going well. I will be on the back again next week and will up date! :-)

Thanks all! I will let you know how I get on!!
