So if Darren C has a spare, or failing that maybe Chris N? then a quick referb and swap 'tec' on the 15th? Hows that sound Simon?
That sounds great to me! I don't have much in the way of tools, but I have borrowed two ramps, a trolley jack and a small hydraulic jack etc. If people can give me a list of what would likely to be needed I can go and invest in some bits. If you guys think that a refurbished rack is the best option then lets go with that.
Thanks,
Simon
You will need a ball joint separator to remove the track rod ends from the hub assembly:
I have used the Scissor type removers for years and they don't destroy the rubber boot if used carefully.
Halfords web site, in search field type in:
Laser Ball Joint Separator Scissors
