Rear diff mounting bracket

Good luck changing those. I got a friend at kwik fit to do it with their press. Is the clutch done now?

Clutch was done about 6weeks ago although the car is still with them as they was ment to be doing the rear end whilst they had it. I havent seen it in 14weeks.
I will get my chap who mots my car and van to fit them, at the same time i might get him to fit my discs and pads as they are still sitting here gathering dust.

14 weeks? Blimey I'm guessing they're having issues?

When ever i get jobs done by other people this car seems to be cursed with crap customer service.

I agree 100%, the only job I admit I cant do is body and paintwork, I dont have the patience. I would rather spend the money on the tools so I can do the job than pay some one else and then find its not to my standard. Luckily I have a friend who had a body shop.

I'm beginning to get on a bit now so slowly scaling down what work I do on cars . I sent my son's mg montego turbos engine off to be rebuilt as I didn't want to do that any longer . Completely messed it up so I took it back and did it myself... Again. Comes a point when I now only trust a few places these days but I have to stop at some point.
I feel for Phil though having to wait that long as it shouldn't be like that
If theres something I can't do on my zt I will always send it up to Chris at retro sports as I trust him

Funny you mention Chris at retro sports, I had a mk1 260 bumper dropped of at my house yesterday by a nice chap called James and his partner is Chris,s daughter..
we had a nice chat...
I think in future i will be using retro sports for any work that needs doing..

You could do worse. Chris' reputation is excellent. Wish he were closer for me .
