The guy who put his project on hold has abandoned it altogether and has no need for the bolts.

The kit will be £20.95 if you wish to pay by bank transfer or £21.87 if you would prefer PayPal. Please PM me with your preferred method

I had placed the order for the lasts of the bolts earlier in the week. I just phoned them up now to see where they are and have been told they are actually out of stock everywhere in the country (I hope he just means his own companies depots). Earliest they can get them is August and awaiting a delivery from somewhere "overseas"

They are refunding me for them and I am trying find somewhere else to get them.

Sorry everyone.

Anyone heard from mr p lately? He is the only person left to pay and hasn't responded to PMs

Hi David

Any news on the suspension bolts as I could do with sorting a date for fitting.

Cheers Jake

Sorry, haven't been able to get online all week. The bolts arrived on Wednesday and I'm nearly done packaging them all up. It takes a while counting out all the items in each kit and placing all the washers, nuts and caps on each bolt and I've had work too.

I will be posting them out Tuesday/Wednesday

Edit: I'm still waiting to hear from mr-p about payment. I've sent PM's but had no reply and I can't send him an email because he's has chosen not receive them from forum members. Does anyone have a way to contact him outside of the forum? It seems his last post on the forum was the one confirming he wanted a kit.

Have you tried weighing one bolt, washer and cap and then multiplying that number by the amount you need and just forming the kits that way?

I thought of that but I was talked out of it. My dad thinks there would be too much variation on the weight of each bit due to manufacturing tolerances. I'm not so sure, they can't be that different to each other.

The deciding factor for me was not having any scales to hand

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay.

I just paid all the postage and the sets are being picked up tomorrow at 12pm for delivery on Wednesday.

I would have done it earlier but work has been getting in the way (I work part time in retail and have to go in whenever I get a phone call )

All done now though and I hope I haven't annoyed anyone too much with the wait.
