New member - new kit

Recommended Posts

Hi All

 

Just joined after lurking for a long time as I have finally got around to ordering an SDV kit to go with the Sierra bits in my garage.

 

I'll have some questions soon no doubt, but first off I need to make space by selling the MK Indy chassis that I was going to build until I saw the light  ;)

 

Cheers

Chris

Welcome and almost no question will ever go unanswered. Even what you consider to be daft ones.

Chris, correct, all questions will be answered but the answers may be as daft as you think the question is :)

 

Seriously, there's a wealth of knowledge here on call at all times you may need it. The members of this club make it a very good club indeed.

Welcome  :)

 

Stoneleigh kit car show just a few weeks away. Make sure you come along and get your questions answered.

 

Where are you located...?

Hi Andy

 

Not sure if I can do Stoneleigh as it's a trek from Newcastle there and back in a day - and will just be back from a week away with SWMBO, so could only do Monday.

Can you get down Sunday and camp?

Hmmm.... possibly. But after managing to square up the 'ordering of the kit' with her, I will be pushing my luck going to somewhere that is bound to suck the life out of my wallet!

Ha!  :d

 

Wallets can be left at the member's drop off to avoid upgradeitis.

Welcome!

I've a Sierra SDV so if you need any pics of how bits fit pm me!

I'll no doubt be in touch - one quick question though if I may... can you use the Sierra's rack and steering colum (I have a shortened quick rack and modded column already), and does the SDV use Transit drag links with Maxi all joints (again, already have them!)?

 

I'll post these and other questions somewhere more suitable soon, but figured it was worth a quick punt ;)

You'll need the Transit drag links and Maxi ball joints, yes. They go on the top wishbone to upright and bottom wishbone to upright respectively.  

  Rack is usually an Escort one but I'm not sure if sierras can be used/adapted.

Welcome aboard

As Andy says stoneleigh would help no end

Just take a camera and stay on the Westfield parking area taking lots and lots of photos from every angle, it's the best chance you will get for a year ;)

So... if I manage to get to Stoneleigh, I notice the web site says camping is £30 - which is a lot for one night (all I could do) and i'd rather spend spare cash on bits! - is there any 'club' camping available etc?
