Any help with a Torsion bar adjustment?

Sounds great to me admin. The road tax runs out at the end of October so it'll have to be before then if you can make it. When you free?

I was trying to find a video of someone doing it - I think this is the event I was thinking of:










This is one being done at EuroTec 2008, with some classic faces including Phil Peters - skip to 07:25 here:

Looks like a right piece of crap that car... who owned that!

Whoever owned that car... Did you get any hassle from the police with your number plate like that? I was going to get mine in the american style

[Dan 6511]

That was my first car. Never had a fine in about 20k miles driving. But Gez on here has a similar plate and has been fined for it once, but he lives in London.

Yeah one of the threads in the roof metalwork was a but iffy werent it as it had been cross threaded in the past...(I wonder who did that). We cut a new bolt to size using Pete's foot as a vice and it went back in ok.

Lol yes remember it now what a laugh

Hi all,

I'm hoping to come down tomorrow to the meeting, and hopefully people will be able to give me a hand sorting out the torsion (any volunteers?). But I don't have the correct sockets for the two torsion bars. Can anyone give me the sizes so I can pick them up later, or even better does anyone have the tools and a breakers bar they can bring along?

Thanks
