Hey all have been fitting my OME suspension today, rear was fitted in about 30 minutes, didnt disconnect sway bar or anything just popped out old and in went the new. SWEET!
But the front thats another story, read through Chippy's fit, and all seems straight forward, it just says remove sway bar, and carry on, but thats where Ive hit my first glitch, how do you get the damn bolt, attaching the sway bar to the steering knuckle off?
The nut screws out and then just starts spinning the whole bolt/ball joint around, the bolt looks as though it has an Allen Key(I hope you also call them that in Oz) to hold the bolt so that the nut can come off, but the allen key hole is so shallow that I have just mangled it as it was a bit rusty, if anyone can make out anything of what Ive just said, do you reckon I just grind the bolt off and get a new replacement or is there a special trick to getting the sway bar off?
Also is getting the steering arm castle nut off as simple as Chippy says?
As usual thanks for all the help, this Forum is legend!!! :twisted: :twisted:
