    I've been robbed.

    Well not quite me, but the previous owner was. Replaced some LCA bushes today and noticed I still have a black plastic sump on the trans, previous owner told me he provided the sump yet a a dealer still charged him $1k to fit it.

    You can replace the plastic pan with another plastic pan I have read. Not really sure how as I had to hacksaw the neck of the filter to remove my original sump pan.

    Cheers Ean

    Hardest part was getting the bottom of the air strut bolt in.

    Good job! It took me off and on 2 weeks to get the rear LCA bolt out even with the help of a mobile farm mechanic mate and we nearly gave up. A nice bush removal kit what make is it? PS those bushes look familiar Nick

    Not sure who made it but can find them on eBay, I got mine off a another site for $155 - paid for itself already.
