Drop Link, Tie Rod & Tracking etc.....
« on: 29 December 2011, 16:25:41 »

Just had a new drop link put on drivers side due to knocking, have went over a few humps, might have done the trick wait and see tomorrow. Also had the tie rod done as last trip to WIM they could'nt free it up. So saturday down to get tracking done and change the front drivers tyre and passenger, thankfuly I have a brand new michelin sitting about so will be another michelin that goes on the drivers side aswell, save a few hundred quid :o
