Hi.

Just converted my bx 1.9 rd estate using xantia cylinders.The ones i have taken off had an internal bore of 37 mm.The ones fitted had an internal bore of 35 mm, but it works ok.I believe 35mm is the correct size for the hatchback.info can be found on website.There are two NON hydtractive cylinders left on Ebay priced £82 + £6 delivery.

Cheers Phil.

The above quote from THIS thread (for ref.) !

Phil, as can be seen from the thread in the link above to Graham other posting all the info is there including 'rmatilla' comprehensive MACHINING method !

So if Graham's got let down (Indeed if its for the same BX as he may have more than one) and as his is also an Estate and you stated "The ones I have taken off" which I read as you changed both ?

:idea: If only one of yours had failed and the other side is fine, offer it F/S to Graham, to help towards recovering some of your costs (its just a thought) !

The E-Bay XANTIA ones :wink:
