Due to a little 'mishap' with my front suspension, my S is currently sitting on axle stands dead for a little while :wacked:
The left hand front wishbone ball joint is completely fooked and needs to be replaced (which was the source of my knocking noise over bumps). So whilst i'm fitting a set of cast wishbones, RS2 front ARB and new drop links anyone suggest any BTDT's for putting all these bits on? like...
The RS2 front ARB, do you do up the two front clamps ONLY with the car on the ground? same with the two droplinks, do them up on the ground? or in the air? ball joint pinch bolt? in the air or ground?
Any other do this or thats greatly welcomed
I was sitting there with wishbone removed, drop link in hand and thinking, hmm... this would be a great time to fit new front shocks at the front, that means I'll have to do the rears as well. Might as well put new springs on too whilst I'm at it, maybe H&R's, ar, and whilst the lot is off, I could do the brakes, but that means bigger wheels... one coffee and two fags later, Mr access card committed suicide at my thoughts and they now remain just that! thoughts.... in for a penny, credit card out for a grand!!! But not this time! I resisted the urge! must be getting old...
