Why did you decide to change the rear mounting? Is the jmr one a lot better?
Matt
I went with the JMR one as I wanted to stiffen things up a bit but rather than going down the polybush route this still uses a normal rubber bush.

This is how it say whilst I had it running again.
I then decided to turn my attention to the rear beam again but refurbish it properly this time and upgraded to rear discs although I have since removed them and gone back to drums!

I had this pile of parts ready to go for a while and got the last pieces a few weeks back.

Also got the passenger side shaft on too.
As the box is a mk2 one and had 100mm cups I've fitted 100mm cv's and rocco shafts.

It did give me a chance to renew some of the brake lines though which is how it now sits. Hopefully I will get out and get the brake lines finished up this week!

I'm guessing you mean it moves on the rose joints or do you mean somewhere else?
Yes that's it, I had never noticed it before wondered if it had always been like it, or wanted tightening up.

Managed to get the front lines finished up and ordered up some flexi's from Hosetechnik. Really pleased with good and speedy service from them would highly recommend them to anyone.
Also mounted up the intercooler on some rubber mounts finally.
Picked up a new plug from Vw to make the missing part of the lambda loom and started measuring up to make a bracket for a brake light switch on the pedal
