Anybody know a reliable mechanic, ideally Leeds area, who can fit a rear diff bushing on the Beemer?

I'd like to get it done before Le Mans if possible but my local BM Indy is fully booked.

I have the part but no time or space to do it myself.

Cheers

It's the rear diff bush? BMW quote about 3 hours work.

Should probably add to go on a Z3MCoupe. The current one is shagged and needs replaced. The diff needs to be dropped low enough to knock out the old one and squeeze the new one in.

As long as it doesn't stop the Ferrari being ready I can highly recommend Mr Talkwrench biggrin

He knows a bit about Motor Sport BMs too.
