Hi Brian

Swing arm bushes are only 4 weeks old came from Rimmers

It turns out the guy doing it was a muppet just hired from Kwik fit!

He didn’t do the rear first but was working round the car. Instead of using the adjusters on the front tie rods he decided to remove the tack gaiter and partially disassemble the inner tie rod to a just it! It rattled like a bag of spanner’s so I took it back to my tame mechanic who discovered the inner tie rod was attached to the rack by one thread on the nut!
Needless to say frank views on workmanship were exchanged over the phone won’t be going back there again even though the offered free tracking as compensation!

Are the figures in the table the same for a ZTT?

Cheers Richard
