  2. Hi all,

     

    I am looking to replace my front cycle wings with Black Carbon Fibre ones, is there anyone out there who may have any or knows where I can purchase a pair for a 2B Plus with 17" wheels?

  3. added to my last post, on my doner there was a spacer on top of the gear lever plate just the right thickness to go under the fixing plate

    Cheers to everyone with this one, I did not know that there was so many different ways of doing this mod, but I went and followed the instructions from the RH web site, designed and made a spacer to the desired wide. Yet to go out on the road but it seems to work OK, but not really convinced about what I will acheive.

     

    Just one question is 7mm the maximum or can you go further?

     

    Anyway thanks to everyone.

     

    PS Roadster 7 seats just arrived and guess what, yes that's, it more mods to make them fit.............DAD!

  4. Hi,

    Anyone got a rear N/S caliper or both sides ---- Sierra disc rear end? ( mine was a Sapphire)

     

    Not for "the Phoenix" but another project.

     

    Thanx

  7. Hi, I have gone to the limit of fitting a complete rear beam upgrading the brakes to discs and fitting an LSD, which is now successfully finished, but I have not done anything to the shocks and springs, although I have used the springs that came with the beam from a Sierra 4x4. I am now contemplating changing theses to coil over dampers and wondered the best way of going about this and if there was anyone out had any for sale?

  8. Why is it that you lads make it look so easy!

     

    Off to scrap yard tomorrow to get a lever to practice on first, so we are looking at a 7mm spacer, looks simple enough, good job my dadas an engineer with a workshop at the back of his house with all the gear.

  9. I have seen various cars with the little wind deflectors, if that is what you call them, fitted to the side of the front screen, has anyone any idea where I can purchase these and if so do they just slide onto the locating pins for the side screens?

     

    Greenie :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

  10. I own a 2B model, now this might sound like I am thick, and you won't be far wrong so please bear with me, how do I know whether my car is a 2B sliding pillar?

     

    Greenie :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

  11. I have finally got the complete beam in place and securely bolted up, new brake pipes and braded hoses make it look the part. Just dbating whether or not to go the full hog and throw even more cash at it and go for coil over dampers.........Who knows that's one I will have to think about and sweet talk the missus. Any way have a great New Year.

  13. Steve,

     

    I fitted AVO coil overs to mine, and works a treat.

    I originally fitted 10 inch 300lb springs but found the ride slighty too high, but as I had a pair of 8 inch "spare", I fitted these in the same drilled holes of the chassis, but now the ride height is slightly too low.

    I intend to re drill the holes in the chassis and fit the 8 inch springs (also 300lb) just to give another inch of clearance.

    As a result, i do have a pair of 10 inch 300lb springs AVO adjustable coilovers which I intended putting in the "for sale" column.

    They have been fitted but never used, so if you are interested, make me an offer. Shockers cost me about £210.

    Simon

    Have you sold these?

     

    Greenie :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

  14. theres a company in Radcliffe (Bury) that do some nice ones, Big Jim has them fitted, they are alot cheaper than Intatrim.
