Hi all. Am in need of a replacement headlight relay for my '72 XL & was wondering if anyone had one for sale? Thanks
-
Why thank you, kind Sir! As for £800......... 🤣

Pictures didn't do it enough justice! Pleasure to meet you & see/hear it in the flesh. Thanks for wanting to look under my hood & subsequently spotting my wayward oil pressure wire (it's only 52 years old-you would have thought the wire would last longer before breaking off 😉)

Looks blooming marvelous! Hope to see it in the flesh - can really appreciate how much work you've done to get to where you are

Replacing lower wishbone ball joints on a mk3

Cheers!. Will give it a try - was confused as new alongside old don't even look the same bolt holes. Fingers crossed 🤞 -

Replacing lower wishbone ball joints on a mk3
RichE posted a topic in Suspension, Steering, & Brakes
Hi all. New to the site, but have had my Cortina since 1992 and am after some advice please. Having successfully removed the old ball joints (upper and lower) with the use of a grinder & 'gentle' persuasion ;-) my new top joints have bolted straight on, but with the lowers (Borg & Beck BBJ5025) the tie bar holes just don't line up...has anyone else had this problem? or have I got the wrong part? My car is a 1972 1600 ohv XL (p/fl) Subframe sticker - yes, it's still on there! is 71BB-5000DA and under that it says 1548679. Weirdly, I've got round tiebar Bush holes as per a facelift yet rest of subframe (ie horns) are p/fl. Any answers/thoughts will be gratefully received. Will try & upload photos (once I work out how to)
