    Anddon, Just slap it on the floor. Super sticky and dries pretty quickly. Just make sure there's no dust or oil on prior to painting. Can't remember the paint make but you can buy it from any paint suppliers. Just ask for floor/garage paint.

              got the struts built up today, went ok although trying to fit the bloody circlip in the RBTM was a pain, spec consists of Alloy hubs, Vented discs, new inner and outer bearings, steering arms, Gartrac adjustable spring platform struts, new 300 / 70 bilstein inserts, new 270 llb springs, new RBTM, black wheel nuts, extended wheel studs and "standard" calipers now fitted,(note Red grease caps for front bearings, looks like Customs nose lol) just need to bolt to the shell (anyone any decent princess calipers for sale guys ?).
              cost per corner excluding caliper and disc @£650.it would have been more only i done all the work myself and i had a friendly engineering company (Design and manufacture, Merthyr Tydfil) press the wheel studs into the alloy hubs).
              wil soon have for sale a set of group 4 Bilsteins (World cup) complete.
              For info i have added a pic of the Gartrac "threaded" front strut alongside the 2.8 strut i was originally going to use (now destined for brians stripped beastie, oops forgot, brians white beastie)


















              will keep em coming..............

                      i have just taken my princess 4 pots off my mex to trade in at harwoods old spot in liverpool, i am getting a set of bremsport alloy calipers so need the cash to put towards them.
                      Will be taking them on saturday 14th so need to know before then.
                      He has offered £100 for them so if you want them at that price plus postage, call me on 07779290464 or reply thro this email.
                      they are already spaced and linked for vented discs and have stainless steel pistons fitted instead of crappy chrome plated originals and would come with pads with loads of meat left on. They are painted with silver brake paint.
                      can post pics if interested.

                              give gartrac a pair of struts for them to convert to coilovers.

                                yes, sent gartrac my "standard" struts and they then cut the thread on the casing and added the wedges etc etc, quality is top notch.
