After the essay of a title... lol
Easiest bit first, have a really weird wheel vibration (through steering wheel etc and well whole car), had it after did a engine swap, then when fitted the 1242 the problem went away
Then did the cambelt (vernair pulley fitting) and all good, till it lost its alternator belt (doh!) so wheel off once more, and refitted that and since then its got the weird vibrations over about 50-60mph... really bad at about 80mph
Could it be that the wheel hasnt fitted centrally or similar? going to take wheel off and refit and see if problem goes away one thing to note though, there is no lip for the wheel to sit on when fitting dont know if that would be a factor...
second problem... now ive had 5 centos so i know all too well about the cento lean but mine has a cento lean on drugs.... over a inch difference in the arch gap on the fronts, front driver side on bumps can scuff into the arch liner.. only had that problem since setting off onto a roundabout and getting a loud "TWANG" noise... visually nothing is wrong with spring or well anything really except this major lean
The spring does have a strange bend in it though which was there from day one but dont know if it was this bad... (have sent in pic to ff phone gallery - so will have pic shortly) only other thing is a dead passenger side engine mount but again dont know if that would be the cause of sitting lower on drivers side?
am i right in thinking it cant be shocker as that wouldnt affect the height it sits at anyway? that would be done by the springs? tempted to email teh guy who keeps re-listing FK springs on ebay lol
