Krazy Kyle Get It To Wheelspin Uncontrolably Then Give It Another 5 Pounds Cruise Control 2,697 Member For: 14y 1m 25d Gender: Male Location: Work Posted 03/09/11 04:56 AM Share Posted 03/09/11 04:56 AM Thanks Gordon, called up Obriens, lady quoted me $530, and said sometimes they do "overstock specials". so left it at that, got a call 1 hour later, got quoted $430, and eing done at home, so pretty happy. and no Steve, didnt tick that box on my insurance, last car insurance had it, used it 1ce in 5 years, and I did it the week I sold it just cos I could. but ~$50 a year for something that's ~$500 aint bad I guess Hey Luke, how hard is it to pull apart the suspention rubbers (yes, I know, "which ones"... I dont know, the ones that are squeeking) and grease them to, as mentioned, stop them squeeking. $50k+ car with squeely brakes and squeeky suspention just doesnt seem right. if it keeps doing it im gonna drive it off a cliff.and to add to that, I wanna ask how many cartons to come do it at urs, but if urs still isnt on the road, I cant see u wanting to work on others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a ute its probably the rear springs bushes. Easily striped and regreased.Order books pretty full the next few weeks. We can sort something tho. Carton wise I work on a sliding scale 1 p/h for the first 3 hrs then 1.5 p/hr thereafter....(+1 carton extra per hour if you want to help.... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford went ahead and ordered the new engine and was going to get their mechanic to do the remove and refit, but I told them no I wanted Simon to do it so they just had the engine sent to Simon instead of their guy.

You cannot miss out on the opportunity to have a built engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabbed second and held it sideways up the road for a good 10-15 metres. Next thing I know, red & blue come on and they're going over my car.They ended up just saying "Think about it next time." and let me off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
