Default my last few days of old ford ownership :cry:

firstly the front drivers wheel bairing went on my dily runner xr3 so i thaught id take the rs1600i anti roll bar,gaz coilovers,new hubs & bairings, wileood 4 pots & 285mm discs & mef tca's on so that took more than the 2 hours i anticipated more like 7 hours, so i put the wheels on at the end & headed home (about 2 miles away) only to find the brakes werent bled by a mate & where stuck on or something was rubbing, so i got it home only to notice the escort cossie wheels hit the coilover
the next day i get the smaller 15'' 7 spokes only to find they dont go on over the brakes so i change the brakes back to the standard xr3 items, bled them 7 went to get petrol (about half mile away) only to find the same mate ahant put the wheel bairings propperly, there was smoke & everything coming from the wheel

new bairings orderd but it all has to come apart again

i feal like radders with all the problems

to be continued
