Re: Kaiser-Locker-Feroza

Hi monmendoza, I wish it was my ride but it's not. I didn't have a pic of my ride at the time and thought this looked cool too. I think this is a Bertone Freeclimber II with the bmw motor. Usually they come with a golf gti grille assembly but, yes, this one has a bmw front. I'm not sure if this was ...

Re: looking for a gearbox for my feroza

I've lost 5th and reverse but it was a bit of a gradual thing. First reverse became difficult to get into then 5th, recently they've become next to impossible. Tried the fork holders but they seemed ok. Since I bought my roza the shift lever's had more play in it than my 7 yr old. I've just pulled t...

Re: grinding noise from the steering column

Thanks tehekho I'll do that. I wasn't sure if lubricant might be a problem with contact between the plate and the wire. Might even go a step further and solder a ball on the tip of the wire so it'll slide smother over the polished plate.

Luckily I noticed straight up and there didn't seem to be any damage. That was about 12 months ago. ...

I did my own 50mm lift and only had to drop the radiator, haven't had any probs. A young fella who works at the local wreckers did a 70mm lift and said he only had to move the radiator too. As far as I can see a 30mm lift wouldn't need any thing else to be moved/extended.
