Just dropping them off tomorrow to be crimped and the 2x 14mm banjos fitted. Then on Saturday I'm doing the full ACE conversion. I've...

    Today I changed the rotton rear mudflap brackets. Very messy job :cry: Found out I had limited access with the drill and some of the rivets are made from a very tough steel. Anyway managed to get them both off which revealed some rust. So I cleaned it all up with a wire wheel, used rust...

    So I had slight vibration when braking so I've installed new front discs and pads. Febi Bilstein coated discs and Ferodo premium pads. Upon removal I discovered one of my sliders was seized solid! Couldn't move it until I got some heat on it. All stripped cleaned and greased.
