Re: Wolseley 1500

Hi

Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure what engine was in it. Useful tip on the rear axle. I am looking to upgrade to the 1275 and wondered whether the 1500 was a better route. But as I currently have a 948cc I need to upgrade gearbox and rear axle as well.

Re: Anti roll bar or up rated tie bar

Thanks for all the replies. They have been helpful. I am fitting an anti-roll bar but will also be taking the advice of using a heavier grade oil.
