Any BTDT or Gotchas I should know about ahead of time? I have rebuilt Porsche 928 P/S pumps (they look like the identical ZF pump) so I don't expect any major headaches but I would appreciate a heads-up if anyone has anything.

#7. Bosch Wiper Refills - from Dorffer, Rich
Top
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2002 15:20:58 -0500 From: "Dorffer, Rich" <RDORFFER@CleIndians.com> Subject: Bosch Wiper Refills I know we had a lot of discussion regarding the availability of Bosch wiper refills. I looked into this and found the same thing, limited availability and no availability locally. One person pointed out Parts America (i.e., Advance Auto Parts) and I found they had them according to their on-line website (none in their local stores at all) but their shipping was exorbitant (like $14 for a few sets of refills). Anyway, I found that World Wide Auto Parts (http://www.nosimport.com) at 800-362-1025 had them and the pricing was as follows per pair of refills: WWAP Parts America Bosch 43321 $7.78 $8.99 Bosch 43320 $6.39 $6.99 Anyway, I spoke to a Jane Campbell at WWAP. It sounds like they have most of the refills in stock (mine shipped the same day) and they had reasonable UPS Ground shipping. I asked why the availability of the Bosch refills was so slim based on the list comments and my personal results. She told me that Bosch is in midst of a running change over and they are converting to a different type of blade/refill where the new refill will have the structural metal piece integrated (rather than separate in the current refill) and they the refill may be wider (she wasn't sure if the new refills would be compatible or not with the old applications, likely not). Currently, Bosch is telling them they will continue to make the old refills available. She had no explanation as to why all the local outlets stopped carrying them and we speculated it may have something to do with how they manage inventory (only wanting to carry one line, the newest line, when it comes out) or they are going away from Bosch for other business reasons, etc. Best regards, Rich > -----Original Message----- > From: Jane Caldwell [mailto:office@nosimport.com] > Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 8:05 PM > To: Rich Dorffer > Subject: RE: Part Request-J1112023 > > > Rich, > > Thank you for your inquiry.

#9. Forzen Tie Rod?? - from Ahmad Lutfeali
Top
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2002 22:17:49 +0000 From: "Ahmad Lutfeali" <m3_racer99@hotmail.com> Subject: Forzen Tie Rod?? Hello everone. Last week I got my Bilsteins (chose over stock due to life-time warranty)and E30 Control arms (with offset bushings) on my recently purchased 98 Boston Green coupe (this one will stay stock. (The car sits higher than stock by a full inch-front-but thats another story all together). Upon 400 miles of driving, I noticed some severe feathering on the front tires. Well I realized toe was off so I went to the alignment rack. The guy couldnt turn the passenger side tie rod to adjust the toe. He said it was frozen. I peaked under the car and the nut was lose but the rod wouldnt turn. Well as a band aid solution we left the passenger side rod static and played with the driver's side tie rod so I do not burn through the tires (BTW it was -3 degrees total toe out). Its in spec now but the steering wheel is really off. Has anyone experienced this frozen tie rod issue? Any tips? or do I just need to get a new passenger side tie rod? Thanks in advance, A.L. 98/2 Boston Green in Atlanta. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
