My first Mk1

Ive had a couple of mk2's but this is my 1st mk1 cabby……

Just fitted these wheels today but not really sure what else i want to do to her yet.

Doubt the ar's are buggered, prob the rubbers but not the bars.

Prob just fishing for work.

Not sure, they said they dont do repairs, just a tyre fitters. I looked underneath when it was on the ramp and the rear ones seem to be held on with jubilee clips and the front near side has come away and torn the rubber boot…….bugger!

You will be needing some new brackets, have a couple of fronts if needed, and i think crazyquiff has stock of the rears

Yeah it will be the brackets or rubbers - the bar is a big steel bar, if that's worn through I'd be surprised :?
Rubbers and brackets are easy enough to replace - maybe even poly bush them while you have it off??
