Hi guys,
What are the differences between the two? I know on my spanish built vit the brakes are different, anything else. Believe the wishbones are different too?
Take it service stuff like oil filters/plugs etc will be the same?
Cheers.

Not sure of the little differences but plugs and oil will be the same. Filters will differ depending if you have injection or a carb...but will be the same for both models. I would be surprised if there are any major changes...surely the wishbones will be the same...why make new ones for another market?

I know the wishbones I got for mine are slightly different at the ball joint mount but are compatible

Yeah, I was just looking through your thread on your welding work and noticed your original wishbones are the same as mine, though mine not quite as bad as yours were. Where did you get your new wishbones from and were they a simple swap over?
Cheers.

found them on amazon £95 a piece! not actually fitted them yet but as far as I can work out the only real difference is the mount has a top and a bottom, ball joint slides in instead of just bolting on
