First of all, sign up to TMF+, and the discount you'll get at Minispares (7.5%) will probably save you more than the cost of subscribing. Plus you'll get a discount at M Machine, who will probably have the rear arch.

When getting the carpet set, if you can afford it get the Newton Commercial one, they fit very very well, much better than the cheapo sets.

You won't need any gaskets for the inner CVs/output shafts unless you've removed the diff end covers from the casing.

End mounts; don't be tempted to get those poly quick release jobbies. Standard engine mounts are the best. Same with balljoints, go for genuine.

[drummerian]

also, i have stripped a few of the nuts on the rear subframe, any ideas where i can get some new ones?

[Kernal H]

If you're changing subframe I'd recommend a subframe fitting kit or similar, has all the essential new bolts and parts. I had to use an angle grinder to get some of mine off so new bushes and mounts were needed.

[drummerian]

the mounts and bushes are fine, but its the nuts that hold the radius arms on (the plates on the end) that i found were a little damaged

[ginigwunkle]

the kit has new bolts and nuts to fit the frame.

its still better to replace as its a bugger when they eventually go, the kits only about £15
