Suspension help

[geoffn]

Been a while since I have been on the forum but should be back on now. Busy at work
Unfortunately my S needs a front suspension rebuild and I may need advice over the coming weeks.

I am not looking to do anything to racy but just looking to get back to the as new state anybody got any thoughts/comments on the bushes, shocks etc. I have seen the wiki and most seem to be Gaz but what are the alternatives, if any?

With Steve Heath Engineering closed down does anyone know where/if I can get sets of new bolts for the front suspension?

Thanks in advance

They are 1/2" unf by about 3", maybe 3 1/2" long, nuts should be "Nyloks".

try these guys

I followed the bolt list wiki near the top of this forum.

and I used this company to supply bolts nuts and washers. I liked them because you only need to order the quantity you need rather than in packs of 10 or whatever. Prompt delivery as well.

Hope this helps

Come on chaps, now the evenings are getting cold and damp how about adding your contribution to the Suspension WIKI? Almost all the cars which went to Spa had suspension upgrades of one sort or another, so plus all the rest of you there is a lot of knowledge and experience to be shared.
