Strange that…. I’ll have to look into it further.
-
My mate at work pressed my new front bearings in and he said they only have the circlip on the outside as they press against a stop. Will have to double check 👍
-
Thought I’d update this thread. Drivers side cleaned and found a bit of corrosion where the battery has rubbed. Sanded it down, rust treated and primed and painted. Happy with the results and can’t really be seen once re-assembled anyway
-
I thought you only use the one circlip for each bearing? The bearing pushes in against the lip in the hub and then the circlip on the outside?
-
Looks a nightmare taking the dash out 😮
-
Cool, I’d be interested depending on cost 👍 makes sense while the front is in bits.
-
To save me reading 14 pages of posts, What are these looms please?
-
Looking forward to seeing this, bet it will go well. I have an R36 and can’t imagine what a mk3 will go like.
-
Yes mate. Dated 96/97 so they must have found a stash of them.
-
And Santa must have had these stashed at the back of the grotto somewhere. full set of NOS speedlines 👍
-
Bit more cleaning. Really happy with how good it is underneath.
-
One under arch cleaned, one to go 👍
-
So taking a different route with the car so coilovers off, standard VR suspension on
-
Get this thread back on track with a little update. Chassis parts blasted and painted 👌
-
I used white spirit and a toothbrush then a plastic scraper to lever up the wax stuff. I then gave it a polish but think I’m going to get an extension for my machine polisher and a small polishing pad so I can give it a good polish. im sure I used the HB body clear coat on the rear and it seems fine. Hard enough to wet flat and machine polish, time will tell I guess…..
-
Small cleaning update…..
-
🤣 yes might move in there… unfortunately it’s not heated but it’s fully insulated so not cold in there. yes it’s got a cover, think its from a Passat but will be coming off soon.
-
Cheers all, the garage is brilliant but but because I have it, I’m not allowed to keep any parts in the house anymore.
-
🤣 I don’t know mate, £55 posted?
-
Yes looks nice, I have a black one and the same style as that if you change your mind.
-
Thanks mate. I put In a 4m wide window so I could see the corrado from the kitchen.
-
Yes, it’s a turntable to spin the car round on 👍
-
Looking nice mate. Have you got a black sunroof / light switch?
-
Thanks, better once I get it cleaned out.
