Hello
Need to replace extractors currently running 4 into 1 wildcat type wondering if 2 into 1  would be better

Thoughts appreciated

Thanks

Thanks for your input, good to get an idea of value.

Hi just wondering what one of these might be worth

Pretty good condition

Thanks in anticipation

Wipers don't clear the screen, lift off at speed lift off when trucks go past.
Fitted new blades, several sets of arms just not good enough.
Even stationary not that good
Any advice appreciated

but just not working.
Any advice  pictures greatly appreciated

I have some for sale  4x13x6 including centre caps,wheel nuts x20 locking nuts x4
Not bad condition need polish and paint chrome a bit rough

Thanks for the help.
Took two people, one to undo the nut the other under the car holding on to the top section of the shock absorber.
Just have to get the springs reset and suspension all done.

Nick

I'm sure this is a lot easier than I am making it.
How do I stop the shaft turning.
I can only undo the top nut with a socket so I can't hold the shaft!!!!
Thanks in anticipation.

Replaced the coils today with 30mm lowered Kings springs and new shocks.
Going to have the rears reset to match.
Thanks for the help.

Nick

Thanks I'll give it a go tomorrow.
Installation reverse procedure?

Hi
I need some advice on removing coil springs from HR front end. I don't have a spring compressor and the ones I have seen in the shops don't seem to be the correct type.
Is there any problems associated with using a jack to take the pressure off the ball joint?
What does the correct spring compressor look like and where can I get one?
As always any advice appreciated

Hi

Contacted American Autos they can supply pistons but cost for 3.125 nearly $900.
Summit racing have pistons for a Jeep that are the correct bore but don't know of other dimensions.
Mk1 Ford Consul/Zephyr are the correct bore but no doubt will be just as expensive as I doubt will be a stock item.
Contacted JP about $720 for a set less 15% with ABN (might not be right, was pretty disappointed by then, will check on Monday)
Thanks for the input.
This is a cost that all of us that run Greys are going to have to face sometime in the future.
You would think that Rare Spares would be manufacturing engine parts as there must be hundreds? of Grey motors still running?

What pistons were used??
This is could solve a problem that a lot of people are likely to encounter in the future.
Paying 700-800 for a set of pistons is going to lead to a lot greys being thrown out.
Wonder if it would be possible to get consortium of clubs together to investigate pistons made in China!!!
Too hard ??
Any information thoughts on alternative pistons would be great.


Nick

Thanks Craig

Contacted Mick $800!
JP in SA  $700+
