I have just ordered some new stuff for my car this weekend.  And I was
wondering if anyof you lot have changed these bits. 

name                              value in pounds
Seatbelt set with warning switch. 45.00
Front wishbone bush set (8)       10.00
Front shocks                      20.00 * 2
Rear shocks                       17.50 * 2
Tie Rod end                       7.50 ( I can't get the old one out of
the vertical link, does anyone know how to?)
Antirole bar bushes + U bolts
Anti role bar vertical links      10.00 * 2 
Other bit's and peaces like studs 4 wheel nuts, and studs ect.
This all came to 204 pounds, so I am feeling slightly relieved of cash. 

I have started testing the wiring look, I put back in.  It all seems to
work, apart from the indecators.  They don't want to do on, the hazads
are fine, but the indecators are not.  I have a feeling the DPO put a
wire between the hazzard flasher, and the indecator flasher, this I
removed, and it don't work no more.  Can you tell me if the spitfire is
prone to this perticuler problem.  I have loads of spair flashers, but
this does not help. 

Anyone know how much of a difference replaceing the shocks and the front
bushes makes?  Will it go round corners better, and be kinder to the
teath?
