205 DT sleeper - boosting video pg10 and pg11

[ginge191]

Max and myself managed to get the rear beam changed; quite a long day, seeing as we had the wrong cylinders for the drums, so another trip to Krisb to get them swapped (legend as he is..) with some interesting results on the old beam - f*cked is an understatement.

But all is well, all went without too many hickups which is nice

Old beam out in about 30minutes, massive difference with 2 people working on it




Issue 1 - seized dampers



Issue 2 - servicebox calls it a "PLUG TOWBALL" ? The rubber between the trailing arm and the bearing i believe?

Anyway, Good beam:


f*cked beam


Issue 3 - f*cked mounts


And finally the replacement beam going on


Overall, bearing whine has gone what i initially thought was the front (bonus) and handles, sits adn generally feels much safer. Pumped up the originial cambered and rubbing tyre as it was at 3psi

Oh and finally, a sticker i found on my car from Max - troll gotta be trolling..
