Re: Suspension geometry in Yorkshire?
Right, just got back from having the suspension done at Mick Gardner Racing in Barnsley and I am well impressed. All my suspension was new or refurbished so there was no freeing up but I was there for just over 1 hour and he charged me £40 which I think was pretty good. The Toe on the front was well...

Re: MK1 "Lights On" Reminder buzzer
I don't see any pictures, and I like the sound of this mod Jimi, I have done all your others.
Is it just me or is there a problem with the pics?

Re: ARB Mounting corrosion - with pics (hopefully)
Hi, Last question - driving without arb - is it dangerous? Obviously this would just be to take it to get fixed and I'd drive accordingly but is there and real damage that can be done in a short journey? Cheers, Graham It is not dangerous at all, you could actually remove the ARB for an MOT if you ...

Re: Suspension geometry in Yorkshire?
Thanks Michael, if the place I try on Friday looks a bit suspect I will try the ones you mentioned. I guess the only way to find out if they are good or bad is to try them, although it might work out to be an expensive method

Re: Suspension geometry in Yorkshire?
Thanks Garrick, I have found a place in Barnsley called Mick Gardner racing who say they can do toe,castor and camber and they work on an hourly rate. As all my suspension is either new or refurbed it should not actually take too long. I am going to see them on Friday to have a look at what equipmen...

Suspension geometry in Yorkshire?
I have just spent 30 minutes searching through old posts to try to find someone in Yorkshire who can set up my suspension geometry. I have not been able to find any information so thought I would ask for recommendations on here, has anyone had their suspension set up around the Yorkshire area and if...

Re: Dilemma! - Answers needed ASAP
I don't think it is a straight swap, do a search there are a few threads where people have been looking for 1a brackets and have tried 1b without success

Re: Question About Rear Lights
The best way to get the lenses out is to put them in the oven :lol: Obviously don't put it on too high a setting and remove all the innards before starting, start off at a low heat and try to prise the lenses out gently, if they don't move increase the heat a bit and repeat. I used a hot air gun to ...

Re: Free poly bushes?
When I did mine I had a spare set of suspension from a car I broke. I had these shotblasted and powder coated so once the old suspension came off it was just a quick rebolt job, I also got all new bolts. It took me and my son 3 hours to do the job and that included nipping down to S-Bits for anothe...

I don't know if the original stickers are available, ask at your local dealer. If not then replicas can be obtained

I think K-Box in Canada do the gasket, although you could check with Toyota. The sticker is available on Ebay and through other sources
