Any car with a beam axle is adjustable......its amazing what a 3 ton bottle jack will adjust.
Yep. There are four bolts on each side that attach the rear beam to the body. There's at least a little room for adjustment in those on each side - and enough to make the car crab a little.
Weirdest MoT test I've ever had.
Emissions machine - broken. Rolling road - broken.
Tester came and had a chat with me and I think they were going to arrange a retest for when they'd got everything sorted, but we ended up having a good old chat about the car. He mentioned the rear bushes and whether I fitted them myself and I was like "are they alright?" and he was more interested in whether I fitted them myself - "beast of a job that - I'll bet they made a difference though?". I'm thinking that given the car doesn't smoke - ever - and I obviously knew about the car and had managed to keep it on the road and looking like it does for as long as I have, that I wasn't mucking about.
Pass.
Nearside front bearing is on the way out though. That'll be fun.
