Booked for rear arches

Post by M 80NGO » Sun Aug 28, 2011 9:49 pm

Hi l'oreal is booked in to have her scabby arse sorted in the halfterm week in october, i,m getting it done at mates rates and she's also gonna have her undercarrige scrubbed and undersealed, i've decided to go the transit arch route and just want to check that the parts i need are correct, i'm led to believe that i need hadrian parts 30-53-508 and 30-53-509 is this correct ?

Thanx :D

Yeah i followed that topic and the merc arches look like they need more fettling to fit, i read in there that the arch had to be cut down the centre and have extra bits welded in to get it to work, as my mate's doing them for a very good price i don't wanna take the p155 when i could make his life a little easier :D

Hi thought i would poke my nose in. The sprinter arches will probably fit ok without adding the extra piece in but the bumper will not quite meet the end of the arch. But both sides will look the same though. We were being fussy so we added the extra in. Wish someone else would give it a try to confirm the fit. What i do like is the actual shape of the arch which still looks the same as the front. if anyone wants to see them in the flesh they are quite welcome but i know i am a bit of distance from most owners.

You could do one side transit and the other sprinter and then take some pics and then let the Bongo clan decide the winner :lol:
That would be an interesting poll.

I am sure whichever path you take it will look fine when it is done, both sides will look the same so doesnt really matter. :)
