Pull the trim away from the wheelarch, guiding the stud threads through thier mounting holes. Clean the surface of the wheelarch before refitting the trim, and brush out any dirt from around the mounting holes, inside the wheelarch. Inner Wheelarch Liners The front wheelarch liners consist of two moulded plastic panels that form the front and rear sections. Both are secured by means of flange screws and nuts, threaded into the bodywork. The right hand front section has a removable rubber pad that can be simply pulled out to gain access to the auxiliary drivebelt pulleys. To remove, first detach the wheelarch trim as described in the previous sub-section. Both front and rear sections of the wheelarch liners can be removed by simply extracting their retaining screws, the front should be removed first. Note that on later models the brake cooling ducts must be removed from under the valance before the front section of the wheel arch liner can be withdrawn; "these" is achieved by simply removing the retaining screws. Putting aside the publisher's proofing error noted above, provided with greatest thanks to brother Fred for the Hayes 9000 Manual that came in the mail this afternoon while I was out to for the annual inspection/MOT. $950 - but we did a wackload of fuild and filter swaps and replaced both rear calipers. Went Synth in the 5 speed. Will have to likely repeat around new years to completely flush - but it does in fact shift much smoother so far. -- Radio Free Dexterdyne Top Tune o'be-do-da-day Mississippi John Hurt - Frankie http://www.dexterdyne.org/888/197.RAM all tunes - no cookies no subscription no weather no ads no news no phone in no sign up required - all the Time
