Re: Slosstophers Scala

Re: Slosstophers Scala
TBH I an going to take them off at the weekend I think.A couple of years ago I was out on a run with a few friends in our Capris and one of them had a "brown" moment when a half shaft popped out of the diff while cornering.

Re: Slosstophers Scala
May I ask, why lose the spacers? Are the prone to failure or do the cause premature wear on steering/suspension components?

Re: Slosstophers Scala
Due to a freak break in the snow/monsoon/hurricane type weather and the presence of a strange round shiny yellow thing in the sky today, it seemed like a good day to start cleaning the car up.

Re: Slosstophers Scala
Gave the car a thorough service yesterday and is now running much better but still a little difficult to start when hot so need to look at that still.This weekend [weather allowing] hopefully get a chance to start the cleaning and polishing too.More pics tomorrow.
