I've said yes but will double check I'm around. Can't think of anything else I'm supposed to be doing...

If so, I'd like to meet you a bit further en-route if possible. Otherwise, I've got to go all the way to Basingscrote and back and miss out half the nice twisty roads. ;)

I'm just thinking.. hopefully we'll have people coming from all directions so a meeting point off the motorway would be better so that you can arrive there from all directions. In some cases folk will have to take quite a detour to get to a motorway services, if you follow?

Having said that, I don't have anywhere in mind.. Halfrauds car park at Winnall trading estate, maybe? Just off all the major roads in the area, and most people know it..

Welcome to the Forum. :y

Meets vary.. Sometimes just a social with a bit of tinkering for those who have the odd problem to fix. Others, we get together and it's all hands to the deck doing a large amount of major work on a lot of cars. We also have a couple of camping meets during the course of the year where we can normally be found round a barbecue with a beer or two. ::)

I suspect this meet will fall into the "Social + Tinkering" category. Come along, by all means. The more the merrier. :y

Is there any tools or equipment anyone wants me to bring. I have almost everything you would need to work on an omega inc locking kit, large torque wrench for wheel bearings, camber gauge etc. 
Let me know and I'll see what I can do

Post by: lee4206 on 05 April 2012, 21:19:24
When I said camber gauge its only a magnetic one that goes on the disc ect. I was thinking more along the line of using it to replicate camber settings if anyone done shocks or lower arms ect.

We use it on the tracking gauges at work so I suppose if we could sort out a metal plate / length of steel that will sit across the face of the wheel it could be used to get the camber pretty close.

If they have been fitted incorrectly then you won't get any heat or little heat into the cabin, which sounds like whats happened. There is a how 2 on here somewhere to show how they go on.
Here we go look here this will show you the correct fitting for the vac pipes
