So me and woz went on another rag to Tenbury wells via stourport today since the sun was out.
Arriving at tenbury having done more than 10 miles woz was having issues with his rear beams arb bolt plate thing coming loose and rattling/squeaking.
After being reminded of why he wants a jap car we came back a slighty different way and took a drive by vid of each car.
Also where we parked had an interesting looking background. Its new and looks like it could be a go kart track. Although really our idea was we want to take our cars around the track lol.

How could you possibly drive that fast on a public road without soiling yourself?
Or did you pack extra undies?

You're lucky you can fit under your car, anything goes wrong under mine and I'm fucked without a jack.

Breath out to squeeze through, never understood when people say breath in, as you're filling your lungs pushing your chest out.

Haha Alex.
ARB end plates are always a bitch, do you have the spring washer 'things' on them which are meant to help lock the nut in place? Apparently everytime they come off new ones from Pug should go back on.
Cars both looking good, not enough speeding though.

don't think I have a washer jon bar a small one behind the bolt head but thats not a spring washer, it's the smaller 10 or 13mm bolt iirc that mounts it to the radius arm that keeps coming loose...
the passenger side is great doesn't come loose but the drivers side was great up until 2 months ago when it started to come out, 3rd time it's come loose now. Last time caused me to loose my locking wheel nut key
in this pic(stolen from Dave) it's the bolt that goes in the hole on the right, but on my car it's the drivers side

i've tried the stongest threadlock that halfords do, even in my ways only have used instant gasket to see if it would gum up the bolt and stick but it didn't.
my other option is wait for my MOT next month if the beam is still ok then weld the nut in place.
