Re: Wanted Front Suspension Struts
Beware, some more unscrupulous traders have sold accident damaged uprights that are twisted usually forcing the steering arm towards the tyre from a frontal impact.
Check the condition of the trunnions threads at the bottom of the steering upright, that usually corrode through lack of maintenance, this can be resolved with a Walford trunnion kit.
Check the condition of the stub axles, often the bearing retaining nut gets overtightened, this can lead to bearing inner races rotating on the axle, a recent post describes this.
Everything else is pretty simple.Last edited by stevejgreen; 06-06-17, 05:18 AM.
