|
|
Okay so I have been a complete numbty. Having carefully spent the last few days cleaning and painting suspension pans from spares pile and then putting together two new strut set ups I carefully fitted them to my sons 33. The pan bearings on the set up I took off were destroyed so I was very pleased with myself.
But oh dear the 33 now looks very mean with toe out and is undrive-able. Then I realized the pans etc are left and right. As I chucked the old ones into the spares bag. How do I tell the difference when they are not on the car? ![Embarassed](images/smiles/icon_redface.gif) |

Are you sure it's not just the tracking/camber that needs adjusting? _________________ Alfa33 QO 1984

Do they have drain holes which you could use to determine O/S and N/S?
Another thing is that when the front has been jacked up the front end/ wheels can sit strangely when back on the ground until the suspension has has dived and settled on braking.
I have a surplus pair of new genuine yellow bearings if anyone wants to buy any.
Cheers,
