Hello and welcome.
Can you clarify exactly what you are after, is it the bumper covers for the washers or the complete washer jet/pipes etc?
There are three different types of covers.
As for your rear shocks, is it a saloon or an estate, they are different.
The compressor system is quite a rare set up, i only know of three people that have it fitted.
p.s. my alarm bells are ringing, is it definitely a Scorpio and not a Granada??

Hello
Thank for your reply
So i need the complete system i only have the pump left and some plumming and i need it for a 1995 sallon Scorpio
So this answer the second question of air compressor which is located in the front below the left headlight
I need the shocks to recondition them to make the system work
Kind regards Radu

Monroe kit LA355 fits Scorpio and Granada saloons,less than half the price of Ford units and just as good.They are honestly not worth trying to repair as the airbags perish with time and the pistons and shafts wear out.

Yes LA355 are pneumatic assisted shockers,you would need to cut the Ford connection off as the Monroe has a simple O ring connector directly onto the pipe.I have fitted many pairs of these on my hearses and limousines.

LA355 is the Monroe kit number,you get two units a gauge with Schraeder valve and a length of pipe and O rings,the kit is intended as a complete retro fitment for trailer towing etc.

Hello
I live in London but i detached with the work in Romania and there i bought the BOB and there they stolled the Washers and so on
I have left 5 years of my contract here and i would like to make it here since i meet some very skilled people they don't much to work but they do it proffesionaly so if you have a couple of old shock with the air system blown or something i could buy them from you pay with paypal and you could ship them in London to my address (my courier address) and from there will arrive to me here
Kind regards Radu

I think everyone would like to help you, unfortunately it seems no one has the parts you require at the moment
p.s, I didnt understand as to what this was referring to? can you explain, it sounds interesting...

Hello
So you need a tool to crack open the rear diff
From procedure 152546 from TIS, Diff bearing adjusting wrench 15-071 to be more precise

Yes just changing the drive pinions to maintain ratio and to be sure that they are in top shape
So it works to change only the crown wheel from this assembly and put it back in the case
From the 2.0 diff i took only the drive pinions and mounted my 3.64 ratio crown whell
Kind regards Radu

Still confused...
You have a 24v saloon and replaced the two drive pinions with the ones from a 2 litre?
