put a caged live goose in the back, passengers will stop laughing sorted

update; removed the calliper again and for the life of me, could not get the piston to move, and yup Ive done this before on 2wd and bikes, so put all back together, mole grips on pipe and took car around the block, no noise, so have just picked up (in my work van) the calliper from my mate, as...

how much difference was there between bells vcu's and the company you bought from price wise

finding the LR one secondhand is like looking for rocking horse poo

1, I would replace all three, although saying that I have 3 new ones and aint got around to fitting yet 2, no idea 3, you aint seen my posts on hotwiring the rear wiper then,lol

I checked the calliper was moving ok, but didn't check the piston was moving, think I'd better try again tomorrow

ok, so the story so far, after returning from a 500 mile round trip, we picked up a new noise, on our return I took it to the local LR garage who said that it looked like front ns brake was binding, and quoted £320, I bought it home, and after a few members here said "do it yourself" I did...

Ive always found, the best thing with noises is to turn the radio up louder, why worry, it only gets you stressed, when it goes bang, thats the time to worry

fingers crossed I get it done ok,lol

just had a look, after removing the front wheel, the disk would not spin freely like they did on my old 2wd cars, is that because this has the vcu on it?? anyway, took the calliper off, plus around a tonne of mud (dunno where that came from:D ) and yup the slider bolt thingeys were stuck solid...

fingers crossed a binding front ns calliper, Ive just removed it and it was well gunged up with mud and crud and rust, in fact, enough mud to make a flower bed up,lol a quick strip down (I know naff all bout mechanics) sprayed some WD40 and copper grease certain bits, got it moving as it should...

Im not saying the design is unnecessary, just unnecessary to me, and if the wiper is directly wired, why would it not work in reverse???? not that I can ever remember wanting the rear wiper on for more than a few wipes

obviously not read the whole post, as the window STOPPED working before the wires broke, thus using a window repair kit would only let me remove the wooden/metal struts/bodge, the window would still NOT WORK, as something had gone wrong already, so then what? replace the rear handle/micro...

well, it looks like that noise we picked up on our trip aint going to break the bank, so SES88, do you take paypal? as I only just fitted new AT tyres all round a few months back, I'd just add the spacers for now, and look at different sized tyres later down the line, but that would still...

I know the fella that sold me the freebie, he already replaced drivers side and rear couple years ago, dunno why left the passenger one, as I say, have the tools,brake bleeder and copper grease, as wife has lots bikes no, garage did finger test, then I drove it home

reading on the bell website, the reckon all these "test's" are old wives tales, and don't show if its ok or not, so I'd say you have a 50/50 chance

after returning from a 500 plus mile trip, something sounded wrong at the front passenger side, just been to the garage and been told the ns calliper is binding, so they are quoting a exchange calliper, new pads and new disks at around £320, although I trust this garage, is that all really...

ok, so my rear door had a problem quite a few months back, the window wouldn't drop, as a bodge to get around it I got the window lowered a few mill by brute force, the door then opened/closed, but left the window on the outside of the channel, a couple of weeks ago I had another go at...

after just returning from a 2 day round trip to yorkshire and covering over 500 miles, my freebie has developed a new noise that I want to get check out first, but if that dont cost too much, Im deffo interested in your lift kit, and chance of a side on picture of yours so I can get an idea what...

may loose not will loose, as mine are still intact
