waynegc123 Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 That's in remarkably good condition underneath... damn your dry climate! Most of our cars are rusted all up in the poes. I just saw this, in Afrikaans "poes" is a very nasty word lmao! poes - vagina (annoying person) or a rude name for someone: Jy is 'n poes! It is often considered one of the most vulgar words of the Afrikaans language. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_South...can_slang_words But thanks for the comment anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escrt1.4i Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 what handbrake cable did you use and abs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynegc123 Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 what handbrake cable did you use and abs ? Don't have abs so that wasn't a problem, and used the normal 2.0L mk1 focus one, all that needs modification on the cable is where both sides of the cable connect to your single one from the handbrake itself, that T-piece is a bit to big for the hole in the steel so just drill or grind it a bit bigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynegc123 Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Decided to spray my rocker cover over as the throttle cable scuffed it a bit, and I did the calipers as well.
