try www.boats.net. i've found that genuine parts are often cheaper on there than ebc or the likes. but you have to factor in shipping

Won't parts from the U.S. not only take ages but then they'll stitch you for an import tax on top of normal postage??


I bought an air force hi-viz jacket to use when biking from the U.S. which cost about £50 then i had to go and get it from the Post Office depot and they charged me another £16 for the privilege!

before ordering you need to make sure that you have not "burnt" you steel plates or you will be no further forward. May as well put some heavy duty springs in while you are at it and do a proper job
