As stated I'm on the look out for a pair of FRP lower arms.
Just want to check if anybody has a pair before I get the welder out and make up a pair.
Condition of the ball joints/bushes aren't important as long as the arms themselves aren't full of corrosion.
Cheers
Evening,
Can someone give me a definite answer as to how much the FRP wishbones are extended by.
I seem to be getting conflicting information on this one.
Thanks
When my puma was sat for a while and the battery was almost flat. There was just enough juice in it to start it.
Once it had all the warning lights lit up for a few seconds and went out again.
Personally I think because the starter was using what wad left in the battery to start the engine so...
Not a lot of progress I'm afraid.
I'm confident I have fabricated a good bracket for the light assembly to sit on.
However, I'm struggling to get a bezel I'm happy with.
Might even have to get some made, but it's where and at what cost :lol:
Yes as Barry has said, if you've never done one before I wouldn't even advise you attempting the Puma.
I've done a handful of timing belts myself and I still triple check everything before putting it all back together.
It's not a hard job by any means as long as you know what you're doing...
I can almost guarantee that will get a cat c rating.
With regards to buying it back, they'll probably let you have it for about £100.
I'd then spend the payout repairing it.
Would be a real shame to scrap, especially with that proud mileage.
Make sure you've got all the air out the system.
Remove the radiator cap and run the engine at idling speed with the heater on full heat on position 2 on the blower.
Squeeze the pipes to make sure all the air has been removed.
You should be OK once the heater starts blowing hot then just...
That's if you pay someone else to do the work for you.
I'm sure the majority of people would buy their own car and mod it up themselves for significantly less.
Resprays aren't always required and it doesn't cost anything to strip the interior etc.
Sorry if I appear ignorant but I honestly...
