Fitted my front eibach ARB. Also sheared a drop link bolt and lost the bushes for the drop link. Will have to remove the stud ASAP and use my old plastic drop links.  :sad: Haven't been able to give it a good thrashing to even feel the difference  :sad:

Got the rear axle off, got the rear suspension off, wire brushed and painted the anti roll bar, callipers and carriers and axle, had to cut the bolts for the suspension off, had to grind a couple of flat bits on the bolts that hold the carriers on to get a pair of molegrips on them to get them undone, now just got to find somewhere to get some new bolts.

Tomorrow got to get the axle bushes pressed out and new ones in, change the brake disks, remove and refit the exhaust and underseal everything before refitting the axle and putting the new coilovers on.






What do you think, worth the effort or should I have not bothered with the wire brushing and painting?
