Not many rules really, this board being aimed at technical issues, it shouldn't fall foul (hopefully) of some of the more personal issues that can affect forums.

Rule 1 - Is that you need to think very carefully before posting anything technical or asking anything technical relating to the security system of the car - See 'Security Issues' sticky for more info.

Rule 2 - We (MGF Register) do not support copyright infringement and therefore references to CD ROM, PDF versions or paper copies of the workshop manual (for instance) should not be posted on the forum. We don't want to get into trouble and we'd rather sell you a genuine hard copy through our Regalia shop anyway! :)

Because advice is honestly and freely given in this technical section, much of it will be amateur experienced based, so any information is given in good faith and is not guaranteed as correct.

Ok, Here goes...... I hope these come through and you can see how I've got on.

I used the P-Clips that came with the hoses from Goodridge, and made a bracket up to fit them as follows...........

Hi All,

I don't seem to be having much luck posting the pictures..... so fingers crossed it works this time.1

Thankfully though, I had more luck with my bracket mod for the hoses.

I used the P-Clip that cam with the Goodridge hoses, and made a little bracket up.

I'll not be 100% sure if they miss the Bump Stops until she's back on her wheels, but I do have a little to play with to be able to tap them forward.
