  1. If you're unsure of the history of your new purchase, then I would highly recommend sending them back to Barnby for crack testing ... You can not generally see the cracks until the centres are stripped ... The consequence of one giving way is not a risk worth taking (IMHO) Main reason for the post is I suggest buying a few extra sleeve nuts as the tolerances are very tight and more so when warm ( or even hot depending on use or abuse )

  3. I'm sure your local area meet will be able to give you advice and help ... Agree with above, simple if sometime fiddley 5mins should probably read slightly longer ... A bit lie Jamies 15min meals in reality it takes a tad longer Providing you can use and have access to Allen keys and a socket set then job done Initial fitting may require a tad more work, such as the window heater cabling and gaining access to the four nuts as this may require removal or drilling of the internal trim (if fitted)
  4. A search will bring up a number on threads on this .. Track will differ to road, use of slicks will require stronger springs, IMHO track require stronger than sprinting To get the ultimate performance will require differ springs .... So ... It will be a compromise therefore you need to decide on what is most important Nitrons over standard shocks gives better dampening so you can compromise on the spring and you have the ability to soften the ride through the damper ...
  5. Avon quote 145SR10@35 And 145R10c & 145R10 8PR @65 On the carbon lights I'm awaiting a call back from the prospective supplier ... It is taking a little longer than I anticipated

  13. We nearly agree My is a 2003 I think so later ones may be on an updated Minno trailer? Some Shuttles were manufactured with a foldable A-frame, which made them longer to tow but shorter to store ...
