Great job Steve , has the offside abs sensor wire been catching, looks a bit like it has , cheers for the info , my mate tries to rally a fiesta similar to yours , sequential gearbox etc , spent a fortune on the box , about 7k with a well known company that starts with a "Q"' , it been out at least 3 times , pile of shite the gearbox, he did 1/2 a mile in it on a rally and it locked up in 2 gears , no guarantee Sir , it's Motorsport use , he's now having a box built by someone else , lsd, n better gear kit , modern technology at its best , I've not fixed a car in nearly 2 weeks , most suppliers are closed and also dealers are too, time for more DIY , take care
I can remember doing a simular thing to my group 4 mk1 escort, where you would remove the old steering rack mounts and weld on slightly longer ones. I was looking to do the same to my fiesta as you have here, then i found these Jems, my god so simple and saves so much time and hassle, remove the bump steer in a few moments and no major work needed and if you have a gunson wheel tracking tool even more so. Also you can swap out the special ball joints and go back to standard if you need too. There made by whiteline, will leave a link. th-cam.com/video/6syyFZn_pN0/w-d-xo.html
Well done Steve are we going to see test drive in next video what I like is u have the bottle to follow through what u set out to do mate even with parts hard to obtain at this time cheers Phil from stoke
It has no mot so only way I can drive it is by booking in an mot and driving to the garage. So won't be next video but as soon as I can drive it I will. Maybe have to wait till after corona.

Hi Steve, just watching use that grinder to cut the bolts. Please don't use the grinder that way because if it grabs what your cutting that grinder & spinning disc is going to get your right in the stomach or gonads! Use it so if it does grab or slips in your gloved hand then it's either going to go away from you or drop to the floor, stay safe.
yes this is a real danger of using these kind of tools. no one appears to realise but it happens more often than people think. if it catches you good you'll be in hospital. kick back its called. th-cam.com/video/S55a4WVFfNY/w-d-xo.html

Well spotted. The brakes have burnt it.
@@Sparkplugsteve it's a mechanic thing Steve lol
Steve do you know if this would work on a mk8?
Mine has factory KW coilovers so a fair bit lower than a normal ST

Real men don't care.... he probably wanted the sparks to fly in a certain direction I don't think he's thick!
Ever thought of buying an electric or air ratchet very handy in a tight space.
Yes I have but I don't want to spend the money 🤑
@@Sparkplugsteve .. Spoken like a true Welshman. Lol. 👍
Nice one Steve have you tried it
Great work Steve but why struggle with the drill when theres a pillar drill next to you lol.
I don't have a vice for pillar drill to hold the Washers. Was just easier this way.
That grinder mountings a little bit lush
Has drill press on work bench. *Proceeds to drill out washers with a hand drill and vice* 😂
If i used the drill press I had to faff with securing the Washers
It’s an electric drill, a hand drill is a lot more different
Hey Steve good video 💪what's next
Iv filmed a video setting the ride height so that's next.
Lockdown got me acting crazy
if you need anything custom made like that urchfab can help look at his youtube channel hes good
paul bingham or literally anyone with a metal working lathe.
😜👍
