My phase 2 GSI

with claiming u need lots of detailed pics. tape measure showing sizes of hole. my mate claimed £1200 for a cracked vxr wheel and new discs as split wheel in half and disc was then out of shape slightly, got paid out
 
Thought it was you in the twin top, was going to pull over for a chat but been a long day and wife had a cold beer in the fridge
 
Car has me a bit stumped

Had to replace wheels due to two fronts being cracked had a bit of trouble with wheels balancing but got sorted. On Tuesday I replaced the rear wheel bearing and took all the wheels of to be cleaned, When I drove the car the next day it was shaking itself to bits over 50mph. Went to get the wheels checked for balance they are fine,

So yesterday I changed both wishbones and a track rod end put the car back together and still same problem The only other thing that I have found is slight play in driveshaft on passenger side where it enters gearbox. Got a feeling I need a gearbox
 
The play That i have found Dave is where the drive shaft enters the gearbox. Its very solid drivers side but has definite play on passenger side, Gearbox works fine selects gears no issue and no unusual noises, My fingers are crossed really as finding another cable operated saab gearbox could be a pain.
 
well problem sorted inner cv joint gone, Its had lots of new parts this month
wishbones
track rod ends
wheel bearings
cv boots
springs (Thanks TOMF)

And unexpected cost today car broke down on way to work smoke billowing out of bonnet vents, Top drive belt pulley disintegrated and destroyed belt so cut belt and removed completely got the car home £75 nice easy job, should fly its MOT Saturday fingers crossed
 
Good luck with the MOT mate. Glad it's going well :)
 
Well windscreen got cracked by lorry on way to work yesterday. New one fitted did me a favour as the one in it was really loose, had been replaced at some point and only bonded in one corner didn't need seal cutting to remove just a pull on the suction cups

sorry no before pics
