Dave_ciw 507 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 As I just got my 4X4 back with new gearbox I sorted a slight PAS leak on it and whipped the torsion bars back up properly as my mechanic though it looked rather funny riding low at the front and high at the back. Then gave her a good clean inside. I did manage to finish the refurb on my other 2 rims for the VR though. Link to post Share on other sites
