He's making a full scale 3D jigsaw of it. If you print all the photos, you can even make your own.

Sorry gents that was all I had down loaded at the time, they were zoomed in shots to show what I had changed, but I will use smaller sizes going forward if required. And will upload all photos within the next week.

The image size itself doesn't matter don't worry

I meant that we can't see the actual car, only small bits of it.

[Vegas]

Get some pics of the actual car

Ah - the joys of Vectra suspension bushes. People so often use the ebay stuff and wonder why they fail within a few months. They're half the price, but fail ten times quicker.

What a pain they are to change too, tbh Taurus they were all original parts but car looks like it's been stood for a while and only used on very short runs. But I have changed two rear bushes before that were cheap copies and were in a right mess.

Glad to see you picked up another Vectra. With some of your posts you mentioned your previous Vectra as if you were quite fond of it and missed it a bit.
Whatever car you picked up, it would be a winner anyway after seeing how much time and effort you put into your Corsa C

Needs moar van.

It's can be a pain of a job - having the extractor tool (a decent one) makes it a whole lot easier. The rose bushes on mine have just gone (at 132k) so it's a job I'll be doing over the next week or so. They might be a wee bit reluctant to shift after all that time.

Thank you Tam,

That means a lot :>.

I might not be going to the standards of the corsa, just a few freshen up type mods.

lol possible future project?? When I sell the Corsa that is lol, It is in the back of my mind especially when I see astra vans lowered with nice alloys on.

The bannana arm rear inner bolt was a pain to remove, but was being lazy I didn't want to drop all the beam off, only had three clicks of turn each time on my rachet lol.

Might be a idea to have them pressed out if you know garages that do it Taurus, or it's the drill or heat treatment :<

Torneo was my fave van tbh. Miss it...didn't drive it but spent countless hours in one.

Or tranny van...needs to be done no van project here lol
