lockys96 Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 well, waiting for new wheel nuts, so cars on axle stands all round this week, made up some wooden blocks with a groove to fit along the proper jacking positions along the seals, and placed some planks underneath if the worst should happen. http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/8501/hpim4233nv1.jpg http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/293/hpim4234cn4.jpg http://img309.imageshack.us/img309/1971/hpim4235rr3.jpg removed the top secret skirts and spats while i was at it, which will be sold soon. nice to find no body damage or dreded rust! but some noob has munched some of the seals probably by using the wrong jack, and in the wrong position. hope my new nuts come soon, so i can leave her in knowledge of comfort when i go on holiday. si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shimmydude Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Very nicely done Would be a lot nicer to leave for holiday knowing the car is safely on the ground and 4 wheels.

So hurry up and get em off Si well i could have taken them off and sold them to you 2 weeks ago, but i bought some standard mirrors, but they have the wrong plug on the end. need to decide what im going for, either apr mini carbon or the new ganador with indicators, although id prob have to cut the loom to fit them.

ChrisSZ Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Personally I'd leave it wheels off if I was going away for a holiday - no rims to get stolen and a very difficult car to knick with no wheels :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
