Need I say more.
Tried to remove to change wheel bearings on the rear drivers side only to find someone else had either tried and failed and rounded the bolts OR tried and succeeded, but put it back together badly AND rounded the bolts.
Failed with the impact wrench, freeze ya nuts off, gas torch, drilling through and finally hitting it several times with a heavyweight hammer. No joy.
I then decided to get the angle grinder out and grind of the lower bolt and then trying to hammering it a bit to allow the disc to come off. In the end I simply used the angle grinder to cut out a segment of the disc to remove it allowing me better access to the carrier bolts.
Have also invested in titanium drill bits which I appear to have burnt out trying to drill these out with the vague notion of retapping it and using some new M8 bolts.
Starting to think I should have just paid the garage the £ 280 I was quoted !
It's only taken me five days of sheer frustration and I know I still have the other side yet.
ARGH... and just as I was getting it to run nicely too.
I'll buy some more drill bits tomorrow and try again. Looking in the forums, maybe I should have bought some Stilsons or a whole rear beam,
I forgot to mention, when I started I couldn't find the locking bolt key and so spent half the day hammering and damaging sockets before buying an impact one from Halfauds.
