Hi all,
Recently bought a 2010 Forester and found it has spent most of its life in wilds of Scotland where they heavily salt the roads for many months each year. The front underbody looks great but the rear subframe is very rusty. It's rusted right through in one place and the back of the brakes are very rusty.
I've managed to buy a 2nd hand subframe from a breaker but its missing a few nuts and bolts. I'm sure more will be destroyed as my local garage attempts to fit it!
This is the new one (I need to rub it down and prep it before its fitted):
Anyone know a UK supplier of bolts and fittings?
