New starter motor needed as mines on the way out ...Thought I’d give this a try as it’s reduced geared and lighter as a bonus  http://www.brise.co.uk/Peugeot-141404PGR.html Not to bad a price either |

Be careful with the brise starter. I got one as I thought it would be an improvement over standard. But it was f**king useless. It wouldn't engage with the flywheel and just made a terrible noise of teeth clashing instead of turning the engine. Sent it back. May have been a bad one? |

Had to have a new gearbox mount made as the last one cracked into 3 pieces. Just fatigue presumably as there isn't a lot of give in it. Made with slightly thicker metal this time too. Apart from that it's in one piece waiting for me to decide to use it again! 😂 |

The cage won’t be modified 100% in time ...where I had to cut 1/2 of the bottom cross bar out to sink tank into the rear seat area ...but that won’t cause any issues for the day as the cage is so OTT anyway |

Around £100-£150 for full set up inc corner weighting ect. Hopefully make all the difference. What’s the deal with the 19th as not advertised anywhere? I’ll prob try and book in 19th and pop along give me something to do whilst he has the car and also somewhere I can park up with a trailer. May even so a passenger lap - learn how it’s done properly |
