The Lotus Grand Tourers

Hi Pete, the bush bolts to the chassis in the usual way and the lip on the bracket stopped lateral movement, on the original bush, until they became unbonded. I guess it will work or it wont, worth a punt. https://awp8mw.by.files.1drv.com/y4mWNDCOmWkTcrMSNB916SiznqGfn6PC_3TNK2VD2G4EPUbUanzSiR1rdT1In...

About a year ago i came across a firm called DURAFLEX and one fine day I pedaled over to Prestwich for a chat. The owner Mark, said he had nothing for excel or esprit, but did say he could make any bush i wanted if i knew the size. I didn`t, but told him that i would return with suspension parts whe...

With the rear suspension off and diff out it a good time to change oil in the diff and i might as well do the gearbox as well. I replaced the diff seals, which i got from an ebay seller in lincon for £5.99 a side , put in TOYOTA 90311-38011 and its near the top of the list. worldcarparts_uk , Oxflow...

thanks

There are a couple of places that do headlight bowl resilvering, if your bowls are sound. Not the cheapest option. The lens can be removed with a strong knife and some gentle prising. I made these out of mini surrounds to allow a more common light to be used, a bit of a faff but uses original adjust...

From the service notes. short version. remove number plate, disconnect headlights and side/flasher unit, and remove...........2 m6 bolts on my sidelight. from inside the pod, (which may need removing), undo the 2-3 self tappers holding bumper to body, its a small ledge on the side. drill out the pop...

Hi, Thanks for the replies, info much appreciated. The crush tube makes sense now and Pete`s tube + shims sounds much better. I was looking at the 350z carbon prop which is much longer, allowing the end to be cut to size avoiding the problem of ungluing. rebonding is another problem. I`m real a fan ...

Then the next pipe, calipers-not good, parking shoes-delaminated , hub-could be better and before you know it you have a pile of rust on the floor. https://dhx6ya.by.files.1drv.com/y4mJzW9INFZTzswQxE0FQB6FPzm2IQ3pXmQyd9GN9l_uJZS_he2wO-O6iq07nCiMaV6CGQHVpZXLSf8YAKSNfd1Ca6VZJk1GtTL2BV3jIpZScZPt6rLCW7i...

A little late maybe, but its worth checking the upper brackets as well, my lowers were a bit more degraded as two nuts is all that was left. passed an mot like that! https://ezeava.by.files.1drv.com/y4m_WlChgTSvgveGFutsOeJ06PcMbt3f1zrqQd3uzzJfdyU1zVcLS25exOysRqUuaockTzj0AKc5A6H7DAWCgbGdkNeYBAgaceI-T...

Mild steel-not good, I took my tank off to paint and when i felt the weight , it stayed off. this is one solution 468g https://ezg1ma.by.files.1drv.com/y4mPcvJ8njlg56r4IZO59fi2VQIz6W9SYei2ynYzY6tJ8SxSLivH-sH-6862HEX0NV-POXYI0kENbPCNlhCVDezjdac056YI-nHVOhthTkRDQef9kPmMZQqNBCgGCQq3n6Cs5oHYggWUcCzDRyZe...
