Well now got 4 wheels on my wedge

Some bits were a bit of a bu&&er but eventually all rear is now on !

Drove her round the block and could hear cluncking frown

Looks like the front antiroll bar mounting come off again. Tried fitting a new bracket , but just would not hold to the chassis. Have to try again tomorrow afternoon as mot Tuesday yikes

Might have round the rear platforms a bit high as now looks like a 4WD Wedge smile

Have a similar problem, was thinking of trying the universal roll bar brackets from superflex. I believe someone has fitted these before to a wedge so might be worth a try.

No time to get anything like that, going to resort to my old method of a small exhaust type clamp with metal strip around the bush, or cut the older mounting and attach with clamp

Worked well last time, and not sure why I changed back to originals !

Funnily enough, I was rummaging in my garage for a camera (that I knew I had somewhere) yesterday when I happened upon a box. It contains a full set of front suspension bushes, ARB bushes and balljoints for the 390! The receipt tells me I bought them in August 2007. I'd totally forgotten and was already watching some on Ebay!
Just need a full set of rear bushes now and it'll be time for mayhem...

Hi ya Ian

Certainly liven up the ride again on new poly bushes at the rear smile Along with new bearings and uj's, just not the easiest job in the world frown

Best of luck with the MOT tomorrow.
If you get desperate you could just remove the bar completely.
