ok Harryjoe,
the BX will more than likely need a full set of front to rear pipes, and the only way to fit them properly is lower the rear sub frame, i have done loads of them, and also have a large pile of neew old stock hydraulic pipes, of which quite a few are for front to rear BX's
regards malcolm

Thanks today for your call citronut, (malcolm), it was really good to hear from you , and thank you for the advice, most helpful..
Still not clear on the blower mod though , still has a mind of it's own !
Have now this afternoon changed that acumulator sphere, ! bloody frozen!
didn't need the removal tool, it was loose , and undid it by hand (result), not good though,!!
On thing i have noticed since changing the sphere , is that i think it's the pump situated under air cleaner, around gearbox area, that it is buzzing (or pumping ) like a humming bird !, should the pump , if it is the pump, sound like that or is it me being pariniod !!!
Any advice guys ???
