I am stocking up on radiators, I know they are expensive now, but they are only going to get more expensive and as they are made from plastic (the ends/tanks) my radiator guy cant re-core them, so I am buying some and putting them on a shelf because they will go bad and need changing after some time...

clicking around should work somewhat, but searching will probably not work. I would also expect missing pics

indeed. that is a must Seriously? ive never seen any plastic tubes on any rear radius arms, and ive had 4 metros and know many people with them. Where do we get replacements?

I have been told that you can get extra life out of the rear arms by rotating the pin, any truth in this? the pin definitely wears on one side, so rotating it should make it wear more evenly and generally I like the idea, but the amount of wear will probably be about the same once it is nescessary ...

yes there is a plastic grease tube between the two bearings.

I dont think hydragas is bad. I actually quite like it. no shock absorbers needs changing and it has resonable ride.

you can use an a-series kit in a k-series radius arm. I have done this in the past. you have to reuse a large washer that fits in the end of the radius arm as far as I remember. it fits perfectly when you use the right combination of parts I have not noticed any difference in length.

I am building a new engine for this car. the current one is getting tyres and uses and leaks quite a bit of oil. the new one is being renovated in every way I can think of so hopefully it will be very good :) http://www.skjulestedet.dk/bilogmc/roed998/28.04.19/100_7896_resized.JPG http://www.skjules...

always many small things to do on this car :) today I looked at the suspension as I wasn't happy with the way it drove and I found one ball joint, a cv-joint gaiter and seals needed changing in the right hand front corner. changed it all and it now drives much better. http://www.skjulestedet.dk/bilo...
