Ha! Sorry Phil, that wasn't directed at you or anything! Just glad it seems to suit indigos lude too.

Did you try 100% all round or back off the rears? When I tried the max all round I literally bounced down the motorway ...

Yeah, 100% all round wasn't pleasant. But this setup is great - time for new tyres now though.

Steve has the wheels in the Landy. He's going to get the tyres off and the valves out for me 8-)

Also, both rear upper balljoints replaced through the medium of a "Large Hammer" with some assistance from an angle grinder :lol:

Bus Wheel Removal (Stage 1)

Post by indigolemon » Thu Mar 29, 2012 10:36 pm

This is now bought and very much in the post:

The splines are a direct match for the 4G, obviously no SRS, but I have plans to ensure the horn and cruise control are unaffected. More updates on this when it arrives.

Honda + OEM + Momo = Win (I hope) :lol:
