  3. For a second thought it was a new form of cage fighting ! llama style..
  4. Going to need a bit more than " hair of the dog " would you say ?
  5. Yes they do make them for the PRHT, i had one fitted to mine about 3 years ago.
  6. Nice one Tony hope it all works out OK
  7. Excellent day Tony we are glad to see you and your team are doing as well as ever all the best and see you sometime soon.
  8. Tony give him a rise , so he can get to the pub more often.....
  9. Cheers mate, just waiting on the rim to be delivered the tyres are T1r's 215 x 40 x 17 . I have some leave soon so it should be either the 22nd or 29th of this month i will confirm when the wife gets in.
  10. I can see how there may be a problem with colour matching so i think we will do plan B Tony, going to get another new rim and call down to you when we have it and change all four tyres and use this one as a spare. Also Tony any chance you can give the Geo the once over due to the car having a bit of a knock ?
  11. Just the one rim Tony needs refurb
  12. Hi Tony are you still able to refurb alloys my of mine was kindly dinged by a grandad in a bmw the other day,the damage to the rim i would say is well repairable but was wondering if the colour could be matched up. They are OZ Ultraleggera in gold.
  13. No bother Tony you can't make an omelette with out breaking a few....... With a bit of luck should be down in a couple of months to get 4 new tyres off you.
  14. Hi Tony I haven’t been on for a while been so busy at work but regarding that dam creak that was coming from the rear off side coil over, I think I may have solved the problem. Firstly the rubber “O†rings that you installed lasted about a week before they perished hay ho no worries. The noise was getting so bad that I did 3 things at once normally I would only do one thing at a time to eliminate and move on but at the time needs must. 1st I turned the offside spring 180 degrees around so it matched the near side in the way it sat on the perch nut. 2nd I put a sh t load of cooper grease in-between the underside of the top hat and the top of the spring (even though there was no sign of rubbing on either part.) 3rd on the top hat in the boot I covered the rubber spacer with bushing lube with the hope that some would find its way in to the joint, and one of the above or all have worked and stopped the noise. Any thoughts ?
  15. Damm and blast looks like the half a result has turned into no result. Yup the creak is back, as I mentioned it hadn’t fully gone and has been getting worse as the week went on so yesterday I removed the old poly bushes (which were only about 12 months old anyway )on the rear anti roll bar and replaced with new ones and made sure we had plenty of lube on them before tightening down, and guess what ............ it hasn’t made any difference at all, it still sounds like a rusty old bed spring. So the only thing that I can think of is to swap both rears over and hope that the creak changes sides but to be honest that seems like allot of effort for an unknown outcome at this end any way. I have a feeling that I may have to come back again soon to try and resolve this issue but in between now and then I shall try to resolve the squeak that is coming from the front left and right of the car but personally I don’t think it’s going to be a roll bar issue (just a gut feeling)
  16. Hi Tony nice to have seen you again just thought I would give you a quick update on the creak from the rear of the car, it seems that we have had a bit of success in as much that the noise is not there as much as it was and is about 60% quieter than before when it is so I think we are on the right track. Hopefully the lube will work in a bit more and solve the noise altogether, regarding the front I will remove and replace bushes at this end and will keep you posted to the outcome. Cheers mate
