Title: Rover exhaust
Post by: TheBoy on 24 March 2007, 16:59:56
I was tidying the garage, as Mrs TheBoy pulls up on the drive. My, my, that sounds throaty.  And due an MOT soon (have to check when).  So I guess next weekend is going to be putting on a new backbox for her  >:(

I've always preferred saloons. But in fairness to the Rover, we had to use it to buy a new dishwasher before Christmas - there was no way one would go in my Omega.

Which reminds me, I must dump the old dishwasher that is still in my garage...

I could probably lend a hand on that along with the zorst.... I got my work list for when i get home:

Dads wishbones,
dads tracking / camber (off too wheels in motion)
drivers central door locking motor

my power issues (alternator maybe)
my electric window button.

Feel like changing some wishbones weekend after next ? :)

Dad needs transport to the airport, so going to get the Senny running smooth again and he can take that but i need to work on that next weekend again as its not been run in about 2 months.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow really.  :-/

Tunnie, the VSC wishbones really look the bee's knees.  There are even these little rubber bumpers for the steering stop!   :o  They wanted 60 delivered, but I told them about the 55 deal and they did it.

I was thinking of taking pics tomorrow, but probably not following the standard plan.  I am going to try to drop the entire strut/knuckle/wishbone combo and deal with it on the side.
