GREASE! IT’S THE WORD!
Nov 7th
New to the Gunson range is this Portable Bearing Grease Packer (part number 77177), designed for fast and effective lubrication of open-style axle, hub, and roller bearings.

With an easy-to-use, wind-down design, the bearing grease packer ensures full and even distribution of grease in each bearing; the packer forces grease into all areas of the bearing, especially the inner rollers and small spaces that are difficult to reach by hand. This ensures thorough lubrication, which is critical for bearing longevity and performance.

KEEP HYDROLASTIC SUSPENSION ‘PUMPED’ UP
Nov 7th
Some early Minis – and therefore, some kitcars – have ‘hydrolastic’ or ‘wet’ suspensions. This means that they ride on four bags filled with pressurised fluid akin to antifreeze.
As the systems age, they are prone to lose pressure and so require pumping up. Nowadays your neighbourhood garage might no longer be equipped to do this! Thus, you, your mechanic, or your club may want to invest in this unique Hydrolastic Suspension Pump to keep the ‘wet’ cars on the road.
This Mini Spares pump will also pump up Metro hydrogas units as well as any car fitted with hydrolastic units.

THESE ARE GREAT DEVICES
Oct 24th
Christmas socialising brings all the joys of the season. However, watch your alcohol intake as it’s very easy to drink too much the night before and then get behind the wheel the next morning with alcohol still in your system.
The AlcoSense Pro personal breathalyser uses a slightly smaller version of exactly the same sensor in several UK, US and European Police breathalysers.
So, it’s extremely accurate. If you’re close to, or over, the limit the Pro will alert you not to drive.
It even has a ‘Time Until Sober’ and ‘Retest’ alarm, a Blow Coach to help you breathe into it correctly – and it’s temperature More >
