So i went off to get the kit i needed to fit it and have spent since 10.30 this morning trying to get the old ball joint and new one in what a bastsid:mad: off a job will try and finish it in the morning
 
Me mums ford fiesta had it mot today.. Would have Failed because some twot had put the rear wheels back on the wrong way :eek: Anyway, the tester swapped em round and all was fine :)

you'll need good luck to get that drop arm off i had to take the steering box off and the garage that did it broke their puller getting the bastid off :rolleyes:
 
I broke my puller trying to get mine off and my local garage had a serious heavy duty puller that the bloke reckoned he had ten tons pulling on it before mine came off! (bastid charged me fookin £20 for the privelege too!)
