Miss Daisy's (K11) Front Wheel Bearings, Etc.

[AntMat]

Do you have or know a good place to source:

Front wheel bearings?*

Inexpensive front gas S/As?

Uprated springs - standard height?**

Washer bottle top?

N/S door (3 dr '96)?

*I believe that the K11 has the same size bearings as a particular Mercedes - does anyone know?

**Someone mentioned that Skoda Estelle front springs would increase ride height. Does anyone know by how much and which year Estelle Mk l or ll?

the door and washer bottle you can normaly get from your local scrap dealer.

i was sceptical about finding anything decent for the micra but that place is heaven for spare parts lol

front wheels bearings are about £20 odd each a side (rough i know but cant remember exact price) and you'll need a press to take apart and put it all back together again. Scrap yard is a good bet -- you'll get all those parts easily...just check them before you buy.

you can get uprated springs that are the standard ride height, a garage i know gets standard kyb ones in. or do you meen stiff springs with the standrd ride height? as said, most other things on the list can be found at a scrap yard.

Thanks for your input guys! I mean stiff springs, standard ride height! Miss Daisy will be going over at least 6,000 miles of really crap "roads"!
