Suspension arm and hub work maintenance: when removing ball joints, control arms and suspension struts it’s always a struggle to hold the lower suspension arm out of the way – this new suspension arm lever-hook from Laser Tools (part number 8530) solves that problem.

Winter’s here and by now most classics will be tucked up in their garages undergoing a seasonal refurb.

So it’s the ideal time to remind everyone about GAZ adjustable GT dampers for the VW Beetle 1300 and 1500.

GAZ fully adjustable GT dampers enable the damping bump and rebound rate to be adjusted to suit the conditions, load and driving style. The damping rates can be altered by means of an easily accessible knob on the side of the units.

GAZ can set these dampers up for general road use or for serious classic racing if that’s your preference.

Design Engineering Inc. now offers three different types of exhaust and pipe wraps; each has been designed to contain the heat inside the exhaust headers thereby increasing the gas velocity through the exhaust system.

Their Ceramic Wheel & Rim Cleaner is part of their new Si02-based range.

The smell isn’t terrible (like some rivals) which isn’t a bad start for a wheel cleaner as they normally pong like oven cleaners or hair bleach.

A nice purple colour, it gave a very good result. It costs £21 for a 473ml spray bottle More >
