Its all true, its a few units down from jnc. I advised him to stiffen the mounts as he keep going through alternators like hot dinners, thing is he took it all to literally.

I tried to..... long story cut short i got them from pvd when they were still trading. Tried to get hold of them for months,even managed to get peter denis's parents phone number, still did me no good so i cut my losses. The rest of the kit was fine stillon the car now.

Unfortunatly i live on the border of the getto part of stortford, by thorley hill. Got a workshop over in spellbrook, spend most of the time there.

wtf??!?!?!

i've seen broken axels before from mtech, but how weird are the welded?!

you cut a axle te lenght, machine press a tube over it en weld the sides of the tube...

i don't understand why there is used such a short tube?

anyhow, here in the netherlands mtech give's a lifetime garantey tho the drive shafts, if you break one, you go back and get a new one.

(butt is still think that mtech sucks)
