Technosir charging rig

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

A sphere pressure tester is quite buildable DIY, mine didnt cost me too much either!

Since we are on requests, anyone got a pipe flare kit and some pipe :D ?

I need to make a couple of pipes for the CX.

Not found the rocking horse poo yet but sourced some nitrogen.
Insurance problems about bringing it to shows though.
Sphere tester was well worth the effort of setting up.
Can borrow the kit to make up pipes in the two small sizes.

I need to remove the rear suspension cylinders from a CX. The pipes have been replaced, and the nut is turning, but the pipe is turning with the nut, and is going to wring off. I was hoping for an easy option of sticking in a short bridge from the original pipe to the cylinder, which has been done on the CX Athena.
