No not broken them, but with the restoration now in progress I see mine are not in very good condition. Its rare to find a Crossfire with good ones these days but Id like to find some better ones. Other option is to strip these down to refurbish but its not any easy job. The wheels are in for refurb now and Im just ordering a new set of boots for them as well! Also trying to decide if new brake discs and pads are needed after refurbing wheel arches and suspenion parts.
