Hi, I injured my little Puma and one of the pieces the local Ford Garage cannot locate are the rod ends (1020174 and 1020175), Ford says they need to be replaced. It's hard to find original spare parts but if you search a lot you can find a few. If everything were available and price were not...

Hi everybody, I find myself terribly depressed. I damaged my little and beloved Pumita a week ago (I stupidly thought the car had stopped, reached for a cushion on the floor and hit a tree) The damage is far, far more serious than I could imagine. The official Ford garage (who are yet to...

Hi, Does anyone know for sure what the exact size was for the 6000RDS CD stereo in DIN? I seem to remember a Russian guy who had done a DIY adaptation of a Satnav said it was 1,2 or 1,3 DIN. Thing is, I want to get myself a bluetooth radio (if it had a way of getting google maps or waze it...

Hi, Does anyone have or know of anybody else who might have the EIBACH springs for sale. I have looking for quite a while, I put my ad in pumapeople last months, no replies. I would be delighted to give my Puma Punk'itu his much deserved stance. The car is ace so far, loving it but I really...

Hi, I read somewhere here that Ford had originally produced the little lovely Puma envisaging to use the dedicated developed Eibach springs (E3581-140) as the best set-up for the car, also employing the regular dampers. The car already handles IMO great without them, but aesthetically it does...

Hi, I am new and I am aware there have already been forae with discussions about the seating height. I want to synthesise, summarise what we know and please add (or correct) if you know more/better: Preamble The seating position in the Pumas is agreed, not unanimously but still by a...
