So today was a right laugh , started off quite well with the getting the wishbones off and the p bushes and front bushes replaced easy enough , also done the ball joints, one looked like it had only just been done but had two there so no harm in it
Then while removing the subframe this happened
A few calls to pug and apparently they have discontinued the bits needed ( if anyone knows differently please let me know ) then I called quickco who apparently have a kit but at 58+vat a side I'm not going to rush into getting one from them, so I've got a idea but will need to wait untill tomorrow to get some welding supplies and metal
Anyway seeing as the subframe is off I decided to fit the xsara vts ph2 rack which was quite easy , only issue was the hoses but managed to get them routed so they don't foul drive shafts or the turbo , may look into getting some lines made as I'm not too happy with how much excess there is but it will do for now , also got the gti ARB fitted and some new drop links.
Will hopefully get the subframe back on tomorrow.
