And also discovered the backbox is shot. But I think its original
£45 and triple nectar points in January if you purchase from your favorite internet auction site
it's got one of those wire wool rig type donut gaskets though ,so more expense and if original , I doubt the 2 special bolts either side of the joint will play ball
have the speeding and parking fines started landing on your doormat for it yet ?
Backbox replaced, along with brillo pad wire wool gasket. Both bolts came out as well as could be expected, but I couldn't an M8 1.0mm nut, so had to replace one with a normal M8 nut and bolt, as the mid section thread for one of them wasn't going to be man enough.
Heatsheild reattached to the chassis, which was the main issue that made me look yesterday, only reason backbox was knackered was because one of the hangers had rusted loose.
Thanks to that Gixer fella for use of his warm garage, as I've decided I'm now far too old to be rolling around a driveway in sub zero temps...
