What's the fix here -

Post by dantheram »

Evening all,

heard so banging coming from the old gal tonight and thought i'd take a look what was going on, was greeted with this -

The roll bar has come free from the wishbone by means of the fitting failing, can i buy a new fitting for the roll bar / wish bone?

Mine went through an MOT with a broken drop link! You'll probably find it easier to slit the old drop link eye end part with an angle grinder btw. Clean up your ARB and put a little grease on the end before you push the new drop link on, make sure you orientate it the right way around before you push it on too!

I got mine from TPS for less than £20 IIRC

cheers for the heads up on slitting the old one.

£28 from TPS - thats for all the bits not just the link, so not bad really.

My MOT is due in a couple weeks but i dont think Stevie Wonder is doing it so i better fix it :D
