Thanks Tilly, I'll bear that in mind if it turns out that no one in west mids has one to pass on. I'm just not likely to be in your neck of the woods anytime soon.

Yes Albert I know its only £3, less than £10 with postage and I could order it today and have it by Thursday but it just seems wasteful for all us builders to be buying our own to use them once. It just seemed that it might be possible for someone who already has one to pass it on to someone else not too far away who could buy it off them for the original price, use it then sell it on to the next builder.

I'm really not that bothered about saving a tenner, I can easily piss more than that up the wall on a Sunday afternoon:D .

Is it the same taper that is needed for the Ford Transit steering link as used in the top wishbone? Using a BMW upright so cant use std mushroom.

Big Vern 9th March 2010 03:42 PM

Is it the same taper that is needed for the Transit top BJ? As I will need to do the top of the MX-5 uprights.

HandyAndy 9th March 2010 03:48 PM

ooh, not sure, the reamer i have is the one that Ash sent me to do the sierra uprights to accept the maxi ball joints,

its the 19mm one i believe :confused: :o :D

its here if anyone needs to borrow it then send onto the next person etc.

cheers

Cheers Andy, that's the idea:D . if nobody closer to home offers one up in the next day or so I'll take you up on the offer and cover the postage;) . i'll have to check out the thread detailing builders locations and see if there any fairly near by.
