Front and Rear Droplinks,

[myfirstchimaera1]

Good evening people,where can I get replacement front and rear droplinks for my chimeara,have looked on the usual TVR web shops etc very expensive for what they are. Are there any aftermarket droplinks out there or from any modern cars, any help will be much appreciated, Thanks Tim

[myfirstchimaera1]

Thanks for your replies, have looked at rose joints and will most proberly make my own,

Good evening people, many thanx for your input, I did look at the Honda ones on flea bay and have bought a pair. hopefully will be here tomorrow and will fit them. front Honda for rear chimaera so rears sorted. will look at the leven ones, put original ones on or make my own for the front,

[myfirstchimaera1]

evening everyone, new droplinks arrived for the rear of my chimaera which are from a Honda civic not fitted them yet but they are the same as the ones on my chimaera will fit them tomorrow. noticed today that the water pump has failed water eveywhere great eh one thing after another, where can I get a new one from, mine is a pre serp have looked in the usual places on the web,or is it best to get one from land rover,

[myfirstchimaera1]

believe it or not the drop links were less than 15 quid for the pair inc postage, bargain me thinks, I still need some for the front, was gonna make my own but will look at vw ones,

[myfirstchimaera1]

As long as they the right length with a lock nut then the angles shouldn't be a problem,

[myfirstchimaera1]

The MG and Toyota ones wont fit,

[myfirstchimaera1]

Sod it I thought why bother with making my own droplinks, bought Leven ones, they aint cheap are they,over 200 quid for the set ouch

[myfirstchimaera1]

True, but need a new complete carpet set now, then put it in for a mot

Good morning...does anyone know of a good body shop in hampshire that will fit lupo head lights to my chimaera,,,

[myfirstchimaera1]

Hi n thanx for the link Sardonicus, have already been to see the guys there and they dont do the conversion,,great bunch of blokes n very helpful..

[chimaera400tim]

My front end does have a few stone chips here and there,not planning on a front end respray just yet,want to fit the lupo lights first but don't know where to start. I suppose I should remove the original ones first. or keep original for now.

I think centraltvr are too far away for me as my tvr is not road legal at the mo..have still got plenty to do on it over the winter months. i think the chassis n outriggers are ok the wishbones all round could do with a repaint as existing paint is flakey..got new water pump to fit..sort out leaky sump.. Upgrade dash switches..sort out electrics..electric windows slow..fit electric power steering..fit new clutch n interior..the list goes on..might think about having car resprayed as i dont like the colour at the mo..Brooklands green with green rag top

[chimaera400tim]

Hi Phazed..ive just fitted leven ones all round as mine were shot. Not had the chance to see if they rattle on the open road yet as the car is not road legal at the mo..if they do rattle when its road legal then i will try the mondeo route..

[chimaera400tim]

So why do they rattle. Can understand they are rose joints. I dont think formula one teams would the same problems..
