General Front wishbones

[slobo]

Tomorrow I'm changing the front wishbones and upper ball joints and anti roll bar drop links,
Will I need a re-alignment afterwards do you think?

A nice, hot bath would do, I should think.

In this weather? It's touching 30 degrees today, Cold shower methinks.

Didn't do them, I noticed the temperature creeping up and I couldn't hear the rad fan cutting in.
I followed the wires from the relay box and found them all chafed and broken.
2 hours with a soldering iron and that was all done.
Missus took it today and rang me to tell me 4th gear isn't working now. :bang::bang:
I don't think there's much left to go wrong on this bloody car!

The 4th gear fix is at least easy (and cheap!). It's usually caused by bits of swarf etc building up in the in cover for the gearbox.
