    New decals for 2013

    Work in progress. Had a set back today, finding out my front suspension was fooked and was probably goosed all last season

        They are leaking but the main fault is when off the car you can push the rod in with ease on any setting.
        The tech was going to set it up, camber, track etc but first started changing settings and bouncing the front end up and down, it was like a 4 by 4 bouncing up and down with ease, a bit like a bus. He took them off and the rod had oil on from leak and as I said it was so easy to push in. They spotted there was no rubber for bump protection so possibly when hitting kerbs the rod has pushed through the valve? I'm going to get them rebuilt with a separate canister, which I have been told will protect the strut, if curbed. They are LEDA's.

          Suspension on these cheapo cars is disposable, same with mx5, £500 a set, check them after last race of the year and buy new if they are not performing.

              Shimmy, I wish they were £500, its more to fix them
              £120 rebuild x 2
