Thanks All,

I got them out yesterday using the drill method, brute force and hacksaw. All virtually painless - gasp!!

Cheers,

Rob

Hi All,

Managed to finish up the front suspension this weekend. Little bit knackered now but good to have got it all done. Just need to get a brake pedal back before I can try her out again - then of course start planning the rear swap, whoopee!

Cheers,

Rob

Good to see someone actually putting his jack stands in the correct place! Even a piece of wood to protect the metal:D , Nice!

You put in a set of RUBBER T/C bushings too,

Right??

I swapped everything up front I could find with urethane bushings, control arm, radius/tension rod, sway bar drop links, steering rack and coupler. Hopefully they should last a few more miles :D

Cheers,

Rob

black beaut - in the pic you attached to your post does the suspension have a "bumpsteer spacer" installed, and if so where did you source this from ???
