Been down again to see her and gearbox is in leaving just everything to connect up. Driveshaft has landed as well so it looks like (fingers crossed) she might be ready for collection tomorrow :beerchug:

Looks like your flexible thingy on the downpipe might be deteriorating a bit. Possibly scraped on something. Mine's the same.

Also, will they fit the standard DP? Are yours the Miltek DP?

The little plates welded to the down pipes gives it away. They have "NOT FOR ROAD USE" stamped on them. You need to remove them or get them changed to "FOR ROAD USE" :biggrin3:
