When you next have the front axle apart, take them off and throw them away!
They're meant to be stone guards but they collect mud and stones between them and the discs causing scored discs and 'orrible noises!

Why do they start touching when nothing hits them???

Took care of the MOT advisories,
O/S/F wheel bearing - did the king pins and and seals while it was apart.
A small patch of welding on the O/S/R cill.
Fitted Proflex ARB bushes.
The bearing was only just on it's way and has had no effect on the car, the Proflex bushes have tightened up the anti roll bar and I now need to harden the dampers.
The ARB is now causing the car to wallow a little, I will adjust and stiffen the front dampers, am confident that will cure it but it may harshen the ride.
More Proflex if it does, this time adjustable drop links... another spend.....

I got a bit creative yesterday before the game so I've made this. It's a flag holder for tow-bar.
