How does that affect the handling on the road?  ???

My mate had a raised up Disco once and it was awful to drive.  He ended up putting the stock springs back.  ::)

4x4

Changed starter motor,  :(
So much for an easy job,think vx designers were on some very bad drugs when doing the frontera,2 hrs to get everything out the way,10 mins to remove starter,5 to refit it,put everything back together,turns over great,bur the bloody thing wouldnt fire,double checked everything and found fault on loom,it started,great,took it out for test drive,run like shit,engine light on,lpg run shit,decided to strip loom down 10 mins in to it found the problem,some idiot had not tightened a bolt up which holds several earths ,tightened it up,put it back together and now runs perfect,i will not be doing that again  >:(

the alarming man

i think Vx designers are on  drugs permanently (prerequisite of applying for the job) bunch of self-abusers

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

I'd forgotten that it had a sidelight bulb out .. but since they charged me all of £2 to change it, I'm not going to argue ;D

Advisory on drop link boots worn and minor play in the steering idler.. both things I knew about though so no surprises there either.

VXL V6

Fitted new radiator (pattern one that is designed for 2.6/3.2's  :y)
