Hello
Haven´t been around much lately, as the wife has taken control of the Ty :lol:
Unfortunately the Ty was hit by a car failing to stop at a stoplight - left rear corner, just enough to damage the cladding, the tailgate but without damaging the actual body. The rear end will need a repaint though. Will recieve 2 new doors as rust is appearing under the cladding.
As the car is a daily driver with now approx 105K miles, lots of things are starting to need some attention.
We´re going to give the car a full repaint. Black with light gold cladding, new floor mats, decals, glass blast/polishing the stock wheels etc.
Anyone have a picture to show me of a black Ty with light gold cladding?
While we are at it, we might as well look into some of the mechanical parts. Engine, transmission, axles etc. are all new or rebuilt within the last 25K miles, so thats all good, but I was considering upgrading the brake discs, pads, maybe bushings in the suspension and what ever you guys could suggest.
Living in Denmark parts are not easy to come by, so I would appreciate it if you could guide me to vendors who can supply fast, quality parts and at a fair price.
Specific questions:
* which brakes would you suggest for a daily driver - brembo discs? Pads?
* can I get a full kit to upgrade my suspension - sounding a bit "clonk clonk" like
* my AC compressor is not working - where to get a now?
* any modifications I should perform - free hp?? - airfilter is now located in right fender where battery was - is that a normal mod - battery now located below, right inner fender.
* I have a very loud "hissing" sound when getting on the power, coming from the right front??
*What else should I replace and service - might as well buy all the parts at one time.
Thank you
Anders
