Not interested in seeing dickheads who measure how modded their car is depending on how many 6x9s they can fit on their parcel shelf, how bright their washer jets are and how loud their exhaust is! Although, there are some well modified cars there, and by the look of your avatar, you are one of the few! Cheers for the help with the suspension :) | |

Mate are you in Nottingham?? Cos I know all of the Nottingham Vauxhall breakers and they will sell you and some of them will fit a manual rack for not a lot. I know AVS down the road from me will do you a second hand manual rack for £30ish and they have loads in stock... Let me know if you want some help as im local... :thumbs: | |

quote: I bet it would ;) Is it the track rod or the track rod end thats bent. If its the track rod better of with a second hand rack. Garages dont rip you off they charge you for providing a service just like any proffessional! | |

Looking in the Haynes I think fitting it is beyond me... how much for a garage to do it? A garage that is not a Vauxhall one! | |

A while ago I had hit a curb pretty hard and had to have the CV joint replaced. The mechanic said that he wasn't sure if the trackrod was bent also but said "give it a go and take it from there." |
