With arms like that the ball joints should be easy.
You'd think!
Didn't get it out until the knuckle was on the floor
Is that all you got out ! You ain't trying very hard I usually finish up with twice that amount out lol. When you resemble try the CV joint in several different places in the hub , I found when changing both fronts last year that they went in further to the hub in one place than another in fact one of them was nearly through enough to start the thread so hold the shaft give hub a whack with lump hammer and nut started enough to pull the shaft in, good luck
Don't know about the vd struts, but on the standard ones the strut only turned so far hence being handed. With the strut bolt a 2ft breaker bar and as much weight as you can put on it is close (so ft tight!)
Wow, must be about 4 foot long !My torque wrench does 350nm
They dont say remove and discard like they do if they shouldnt be reused.

Filing holes does not sound like a good idea to me, are you sure the swivels are not handed?
I did try turning 180° but just the same.
The body is quite coarse, i don't think taking a mm or so off one edge will make much difference.. the bolt head is very large so will cover sufficiently

Wasn't he told to stick with a P38
He was but to be fair it has been very entertaining so far.
Just done a 500 mile road trip in mine, mainly A roads, no motorways. Been faultless. I'd forgotten how beautiful the Purbeck Isle / peninsula is. Pity about the beer in Swanage. OK if you're a lager drinker. I ended up on cider.
