After my slight 'off' at Brands Hatch, I've attacked my steering setup. I'm replacing the control arms (driftworks CF arms), track rods (Tein) and the steering rack bushes (Apex). I'm still waiting on Tein parts and its getting a bit close to the rolling road day ![]() ![]() ![]() I fitted a nice CF rear brace too today

Both are knackered :rolleyes: They are fitted now too, so I'd rather just run a die over it, its only just the first part of the thread, enough to stop the nut fitting
