I'd avoid anything mineral-based or in a spray can. Mineral oils can affect plasticisers and spray can propellants aren't great either. If you just want to protect the threads on spring seats, I use a bit of ordinary 'red rubber' grease - the stuff for dust caps, etc. on master cylinders. It doesn't...

You could have them blasted and powder coated, as they s...

Cheap, rear wheel drive, etc. Early Clio 172's a...

All sent - hope they are all OK.

Hi Adriano - I have taken some pictures and will make the measurements later today.

Can you PM your email and I will send them to you once it's done.

Cheers
