i really cant belive how hard this is, its not the job its self, its the fact that every bolt is rusted on, just had to change the track rod ball joint because i had to cut the f****r off. this was the second time ive tried to do this job, other day it was the lower bolt that stopped me, because i didnt have a deep 16mm socket, had to rebuild car and go buy one lol.
now ive had to stop because the caliper bolts wont come undone. also smashed my head on jack, nice hole from that, put my back out 5 mins later. getting p**sed off with this 206 big time.
