I'm not sure why people choose to bury old spheres instead of throwing them away though? Isn't it obvious?  Wonder if I should bring 5 old suspension-spheres and bury them across europe, when going to the world meeting... I may pop down to Westminster and chuck one or two in a bin.......

Re: Green bomb I'm doing fine, thanks!
Will take a picture of the bump stops when I'm home.
Must say, havent driven the ami for 3 weeks now, because I'm waiting for my "new" gearbox (the original drum brake box, but with disc brakes).

Re: Green bomb Never got the graphite bearing, since I bought the car with a 2cv6 disc-box in it that box now gets the internal work from the original box (different reduction in an ami 6 break club box) in it so i end up with the right reductions, and disc brakes.. Congratulations on your wedding! Looking forward to see some pictures of the Ami in wedding livery Photo's of the bump stops are coming (PM)
