With a rather long layoff since Rally GB, it’s time to get going on getting the car ready for Rallye Sunseeker, and that meant getting the rear suspension fixed.  This has actually been at Proflex since the beginning of December, but a busy workload and the Christmas holidays meant I didn’t get them back until Friday.  However, they needed more than just a new hose and a rebuild; the damage on Rally GB meant the bottom of one of the rear units meant that it needed to be replaced (the threads had stripped), so when I was told this I was expecting a huge bill, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this housing only cost £64, so the total was a very reasonable £225 or so, and I got them back next day.  Needless to say, Proflex UK’s work has been excellent once more, and it’s really fantastic to find such a good product (i.e. Proflex) with such excellent service and support; I have heard that some other makes of rally suspension cost a massive amount to be serviced.  I’ve not been able to get them on the car this weekend, but they will be going back on next weekend, so in the meantime, here’s a picture of some lovely suspension!

Lovely Proflex.
