That's in fine fettle then, not all doom and gloom! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www ...

May be worth dropping the rocker cover then? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Damn, that's a shame - here's to hoping it's fixable with the bits you've got! Have you tried the old oil down the bores trick to establish wether it's rings or valves yet? <br>
<br>
I remember the first time my 1850 broke down, came out of Maplins and got in - damn thing wouldn't start, not a sound ...

They always do! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Right, here you go - the dimensions for the Sprintparts disc.<br>
<br>
These are a bit approximate as it's in plastic covering to stop it corroding <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Total disc ...

Hi, Yes! Sorry about the delay, packing for Uni <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

No problems! I'll get the calipers out in a bit and go measure 'em.<br>
<br>
They are designed to fit under standard Sprint alloys if that helps, mind <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Sprintpart kit is looks a fantastic item and I have one here so I'm not just basing that on thin air.<br>
<br>
Massive rotors and excellent chunky calipers, really do look like they'll stop a truck! <br>
<br>
Cost you the thick end of 600 quid by the time you've got them over mind (IIRC) but ...

Having used some of the CW stuff, it really is lovely and similarly, never heard a bad word.<br>
<br>
The only time I didn't use him when was I was pricing up rebuilding the lower steering joint, was about 16 quid for all the bushes in poly, or 24 quid for a completely new joint <!--EZCODE EMOTICON ...

Leda's are very nice shocks, fully rebuildable too as far as I know, if you send them to Leda. <br>
<br>
Not sure how good the Dolly ones are though, not had personal experience. Can't be that bad though <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT ...
