It's a good tyre!

You might as well go for a manual tensioner as if you replace the auto tensioner it will cost you the same.

New rear arms

Post by newkid » Thu Oct 29, 2015 11:05 pm

Followed in the footsteps of @merlin and got myself a set of 5th gen rear upper arms with the strengthening plates welded on. Wasted no time in getting to work on them and fitting the poly bushes. The front uppers are also done and ready to fit.

Need to get myself a ES trailing arm bush kit so I can get on with all the lower bushes then the fun part off fitting it all.

Cheers to @samiya85 for the quick delivery.

Yeah nice.
They'll be a massive improvement on the wheels that were on the car when you bought it.

:? Did they come in the box exactly like that? No foam protection all round the lips? That's very poor if so...
