Hi,

I am in the middle of re-building the front end of my Corrado VR6 and need someone or somewhere to press the front wheel bearings and hub in.

Can anyone recommend anywhere that will do this or have a press which I can use?

Thanks, Andy

Thanks for the quick replys!! New Deer is a bit of a trek for me but thanks for the offer! South of Stonehaven would be very handy. Are you a garage? When would suit for me to pop by?? Just waiting on the new bearing arriving.

Thanks, Andy

This is true PH stuff! Nice to see something really positive and helpful rather than some of the whinging and bhing stuff that we get. Excellent.

It really is!! I am shocked with the offers...thought I would have been chased out as I have only just joined!

Thanks - the work is going well. New gearbox, steering rack, S3 bushes, engine mounts etc are all done. Went to fit the new ABS sensors and noticed how out of true the ABS rotors are so need to replace the hub/wheel bearing to do them frown

Was meant to be going in on Saturday to get the geo setup but not sure I will make that now. Will get it back on the road someday though.

Thanks, Andy

Ideal thanks! Could pop down Fri evening or Saturday day if that suited? Whatever is best for you!!

If you drop me an email - andrew dot gallacher at woodgroup dot com that would be great as I can send PM's yet.

Thanks again, Andy
