Anyone have a press?
« on: September 06, 2006, 20:03:25 »
I need someone with access to a fairly meaty press in Hants. Need to remove/fit bushes in a wishbone. Just wondering if someone can save me the hassle of getting it to the service centre when my car only has two wheels, 3 brake calipers and 3 suspention sets right now :)
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

Well I'll see what Autotechnic say and I might take you up on that. Dorset isnt too bad if it means I can get it all done in  one hit
