Default Get your rear lower arms painted up - RGG105211 now NLA

Just a quick one - thought I'd post this up to try and help others avoid future problems.

The Rear Lower Arms RGG105211 have gone NLA recently - meaning XPart don't expect to have any in the future.
Please inspect yours, and Hammerite / Waxoyl protect them (etc) as needed.

We have a limited supply available if yours are shot, available here:
Rear Lower Suspension Arms - RGG105211

Prevention is better than cure though, and if yours are OK, get them cleaned and painted so you can save a few bob.

Received with thanks.
These are now on back order for any future orders - I'll do my best to get more, but I'm not sure if it's possible.

Too bad if your skint. That'll be even more 75's in the skip!

It's a nightmare. I had loads of these, and wondered why they'd been flying off the shelves recently.

Definitely time for everyone to crack the Hammerite open.

Not that I'm aware of, but if they have I'll bring them in - as many as I can get my hands on.
If not, I'll try and find the Chinese manufacturer, and have a couple of pallets made up.

I have noticed that these arms on my 2001 reg car are covered by a plastic shield on the forward side . I notice that the pics in Matt's advert do not show these shields ; was it another thing that got deleted or are you meant to transfer the shield ?

The plastic shield just unclips, dead easy to do.

Can you contact xpart and ask them who the manufacturer was and ask them to make some more?

Do you still have some new ones that can be used as templates? There is a firm local to me that may be able to make them if so.
