Slighty concerned!
Ok, I took receipt of a package today which was dated the 1st of january 2007!! It weighed a fookin tonne. So I ripped it open and this was inside:
Im not sure but i think its something to do with rear wheel drive vehicles. Can somebody please tell me what this thing actually is and whether its valuable or not so i can sell the basterd (and maybe buy me some lowering springs as im skint) he he he.
cheers

You mean you weren't expecting to receive something like this in the post? Even if it was dated January?

thats the thing, i wasnt expecting anything or have ordered anything like this ever in the past.
Im going down the scrap yard tomorrow with all my lovely scrap copper so ill chuck it in and see what i can get for it. The way i see it, if its say 30 kilos heavy, which is about right and cast iron is a quid a kilo im 30 quid up! Not that far to go for lowering springs then really.
