Rob_Mitchell Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 M10 X 1.25mm studding arrived and i made some nice bolts up to hold the power steering pump on. Things like this take so much time but i know my OCD levels would go through the roof if they wasnt done correctly and all matching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
