Anyone enquiring regarding parts? Speak to a guy named Joe. Though i don't think he's that savy with Bongos, he does have an open mind! =D>

Now the price.... :? If anyone knows cheaper please step up.. 8) Bear in mind the Ford transit equivalent is about 40 quid!!! :shock:

FE3815966 BOLT ADJUST this part alone was £11.53.. In fairness you really only need this bit that sheers!?

The nut was £1.88

The long bolt £6.74...

Then there was the sharp intake of breath & the "dreaded 8-[ Vee Aye Tee"... :roll:

It was an up front gamble on my part, but the return was peace of mind with the belts.. :wink:
Great info jaylee & thanks 8)
