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

Any advice  pictures greatly appreciated

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.

12  Technical Board / General Technical / Rear Shocker Removal on: October 01, 2011, 09:13:32 PM
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.

15  Technical Board / General Technical / coil spring removal on: September 29, 2011, 05:47:25 PM
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?

Geoff

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

Contacted Mick $800!
JP in SA  $700+
