    Cutting off standard exhaust - hacksaw?

    Hi everyone, I need to replace my standard 182 exhaust because the back boxes are blowing, which I understand means cutting it off... Will a normal hacksaw do the job or will I need something more powerful?

    Front wishbone replacement - DIY or garage?

    Thanks guys :) Scotty, I've been told that when they were fitted they weren't welded in, and the excessive movement has damaged the bushes and the part that they should have been welded to. Hoping to get the Axel stands out this morning and see for myself.

    Front wishbone replacement - DIY or garage?

    Hi everyone, I've been told that my 182 needs two new front wishbones as a previous owner's made a bodge job of fitting poly bushes resulting a lot of movement :( I'm a fairly competent DIY'er, is it a particularly difficult job?

    Help needed identifying engine mounts and dogbone fitting

    Having read the various replies I can't wait to get outside and try to sort my k-tec mounts out (well, it's raining and dark so maybe I can wait a while!). There seems to be such a difference of opinion!

    Help needed with cambelt / aux belt history

    I've booked this in for a change of both belts today after a change of heart, not worth taking the risk imo. Still playing on my mind though, if I could find out what that part number for the 'timing kit' referred to all could be revealed...
