once fitted i used a jubilee clip to hold the rubber gator back on the rack as cable ties didnt have the grip to hold it.

I did get the bearing replaced to but for now... i will just call you a c***
Sounds like you did pretty much the same as me except mine was just on the back, i managed to split the brake disc from the bit that attaches to the wheel

so your tellin me to change that piece all i gotta do is remove the jubilee clip from the gaitor and then crack it off which way? im not sure im quite getting it? and i cant really turn my steering fully to the right with the way its jacked up at the moment
i may change it after if i can get my head round what you mean do you mean it cracks off right at the end where the gaiter is? or behind the gaiter? caused at the top end it just spins i thought

no its not even bolted in its just hit through from the rear and the grooves and the fact that it is a tight fit and the hub and hub nut on it is what holds it in as far as i can tell

and guess you just live and learn mate
#29: Re: Bit late but.....(pic heavy) Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 3:43 pm ---- Im not being a d**k here but
How the flying f*** you achieve that?
At a guess the hub will be bent, and possibley trailing arms too

well long story short being a d**k going round a roundabout in the wet with esp off and it was sliding then wouldnt regrip and kick back in so just kept sliding tried to counter steer and it ended up the whole left hand side of the vehicle hitting the kerb on the outisde of the roundabout
and surprisingly enough the only thing that is bent is that pin gonna get my hub checked but it looks pretty straight and the trailing arm is fine
