Worst part of this job is unsticking the oil pans from where they’ve lived for 20 years. After that it’s actually a nice little job.

Also clean the magnet 🧲 you’ll easily spot it… it’ll look like a cross between a sea urchin and a party ring 😂

But why would you want a piece of boring plastic crap?

That’s a very good point. I went to the IOW recently and saw zero omegas. Therefore love it or hate it it’s now rare which I think is cool. On he same trip I saw two Morris minors, one Lamborghini and three astons 😂

Don’t get me wrong I very much have CBA moments especially on this car. I sort one thing and then it’s something else. And this cycle just repeats 😢 my Mrs has 18 plate Hyundai. She swaps it for new one next year and only thing she’s had in 2 1/2 years was a slow puncture. Makes u wonder doesn’t it 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Afternoon men. I hope ur all well. Got this replaced this morning. Took about three minutes 😂 I undid nut securing it to the shaft. The idler then slid down off said shaft. I then held centre track rod firmly with my, err, stump lol (you folk can simply use ur second hand 😂😂😂) and gave the idler a wallop where the BJ goes through it. Came straight off.

Note though it was super easy cos everything had been copper jizzed on last time I did it 😃

Sorry boys not bumping but do u know what sized nuts 🤭 secure the idler to the chassis and to the centre track rod? I don’t have a home toolkit so would be ideal to just take home the right size stuff? TIA 🥰🥰🥰

Goooood evening guys. Hope ur all well. I need a steering idler. My one has got some play (yet more things to do 😬😬😬)

Anyhow I ring up Bedfraud Battery and they have two different sizes  new to me. I’m sure there was only one option before 🤔

Anyhow they’re both special order and I don’t know which one is correct. So I’m going to order it online. Any links for recommendations? I put this one on not so long back and I think it was a lemforder. But as it wasn’t that long ago I’d rather try a different longer lasting one…. Unless they’re all short lifetimes 🤦‍♂️😂😂😂

Just looked on parts in motion. Everything available at great prices. I wonder why my local factors can’t ?!? That’s Bedfraud battery and GSF 🤷‍♂️
