Re: Wanted: Front Strut
and the strut tops are the same/not handed, if you look under the bonnet of a BX ( if you can find one )
both spheres point towards the O/S UK drivers side,
i know as i just the other day checked as i sold Dom a strut with top still attached

Re: Wanted: Another Front Strut
Having fitted this front strut back in April, I now realise that actually both sides were leaking. The o/s is not as bad as the replaced n/s was, but would prefer not to have a leaking ship.
Does anyone else have a good front strut available for sale?
Very sad to hear of Citronut's passing. I've crossed his path on several occasions and he's always been very helpful. A kind and generous soul, I'm sure will be missed by many.
Thanks,
Jake

Re: Wanted: Front Strut
Hi Jake
I have a front strut taking from an 1989 Gti Auto if you are still looking.
I am down the road near Dumfries.

John.

Re: Wanted: Front Strut
Hi John,
Thanks for your message... and very sorry for extremely slow reply. I'm a BX owner, but not a very frequent BX user (I really don't need a car). Replacing this strut has been on my list of things to do for a while and it's coming around again. I'm glad to see there's a reply to my request.
Do you still have the offered front strut? What's it's condition? And what would you like for it?
I'm actually potentially going to be down D&G way next weekend, so could pick it up.
Send me a message if still available.
Thanks very much,
Jake

Re: Wanted: Front Strut
Hi Rutter,
That could be great. I wonder what else you have? Do you have your regulator out? Mines leaking a wee bit. I was planning on taking it off and repairing it, but if you have one, maybe swap it and then have a spare.
Also sort of looking out for a bosch fuel pump and injectors if your TZD had those?
Thanks,
Jake

Re: Wanted: Front Strut
Hi, that's great. I'll steer clear of the pump/injectors, but thanks. I'm really after a bosch pump, but not a lot wrong with my lucas one.
Well if I could take the strut and regulator that would be great. I need an offside strut if you're going to send the complete assembly (with mount)?
Send over the total with your shipping. Paypal OK?
Thanks,
Jake
