1.4 Breaking

[petefarrell360]

Good to see someone wanting to help others and is keen to see bits used than crushed.

The rear bumper bolts usually pick up the road salt and dirt from the road over the years, it gets in the threads and they're rusty! If you don't make them spin you can usually snap them easily enough, as Chris says, it's a FTW! There are basically two brackets on a hatchback that go through the rear valance from the bumper and onto the chassis rails. A saloon iirc has longer brackets, but it definitely has two extra little angle brackets to help secure it! Before you attempt to take the bumper off your own vehicle Tom, get some spare nuts and bolts sorted! Somewhere I have a pic I took with dimensions.

Good piece of info Pete, cheers!

Tom my spare grill is a bit tarnished, doubt it's any better than yours unfortunately.

OK, thanks for looking anyway! PM'd about the wiper ...

I still need that bar for the quater light on a pass rear door,

also worth grabbing for your stock is the front struts even if they have rusted.

If you have little more time box and diff

Yeah, I know mate, problem is this needs to be able to roll I'll see about time for that rear window bar, they are a pain I remember from when my quarter light got smashed, if I have time I'll grab it for you.
