Hey guys,
Roughly how long should it take to
1 - replace both front wishbones,
2 - replace both front track rod ends,
3 - replace both front wheel bearings.
i have new wishbones and new ball joints on their way to me now, but need a rough estimate as to how long it should take to do all of the above.
I have a basic tool kit, and know the biggest problem i will have is undoing the centre nuts as my alloys do not have a centre cap. The only thing i can think of doing is putting on the spare to allow me to have access while cracking it off.
Is there anything i should do while i'm doing all this? like replace this seal, or replace this bush?
Bearing in mind we do believe this car to be tired :
dont suppose poodle or jonny would like to help a local cabby owner out some time soon, (when its dry ish
)
