Camber kit, rear sway bar, mcleod rxt

So, been busy installing a few parts. Whiteline rear sway bar and camber kit.









As you can see clutch was toast, very lucky to have made it home from winton with the pressure plate in that condition.



Luckily, McLeod RXT is ready to go in. New slave cylinder /w billet piston and remote bleeder from Malwood.



Replaced the rear main seal while I was there.



Roller bearing spigot replaced with spigot bush



Bottom disc in place



Top & bottom discs in place /w plate installed



Pressure plate and all discs installed and torqued




As usual the T56 was a prick to get back in, but got there in the end.





Now onto the next thing replacing another diff..

Pretty sure you earn more than me ;)

All the whiteline stuff I got really cheap and the RXT is actually priced pretty well.

Thoughts on the RS3 mate?

I'm running them on my car at the moment, I've found them to be very hard. Cope well with more laps/hotter days but take ages to get any heat into them.

Bloody amazing tyres. Hard for me to compare them with heat, at winton they seemed to cope very wheel but I don't really have enough experience to say more than that.

It's actually a spigot puller haha, but helpful for bushes too! Got it from a place called qualitool in geelong.
