  1. Ok thanks I saw something about axle nut torque being important as sets rolling load etc for the bearing. Would you say 80 + 90° or just the 80 sorry? Where online would you suggest please? I tried to Google but just found different sites all had different answers
  2. Also top mount nut please if you have it
  3. Hi guys Got the new leg now, old one off and about to reinstall. Just waiting for new hub nut as believe stretch and only 1 time use. Im not not sure where to get all my torque ratings from if anyone can help please Sway bar Drop link Lower ball joint 3 nuts Most importantly the hub/axle nut. Seen one say 75NM and another 148NM +90degrees so a massive difference. Wanted to double check as steering and if I get wrong could be dangerous. Also are wheel lug nuts 125NM ?
  4. Thats what I tried last but not Irwin was an eBay special. Will get a proper one to try last before have to drill ? Any other ideas if extractor fails again?
  5. Oh so just unclip and clip back on? That would be easier. The one I did on a Civic was a plastic sensor that literally welded itself into the hub over time had to drill out
  6. Will the wheel speed sensor need taking out and moving over? Heard they can be a reet pain
  7. Probably about 60000 I am pulling my hair out with same issue. Other 4 came out with an extension on my breaker bar but the last one will not budge now completely rounded. Those gripper sockets failed miserably too
  8. Ive done a coil on strut before but not whole assembly amd knuckle etc. From that pic I attached of one id seen for sale, does it look like everything id need. Is the bearing there? Know i need to switch the calliper, disc and pads
  9. Thanks mate, I'll have a bungee i normally use for the callipers, seen people use a coat hanger etc like you say take the pressure of stressing the line
  10. Could it just be unburnt fuel around the plugs? Just throwing it out there. A3 I had when just left sitting and only run on tick over it developed like a miss then cleaned up as soon as ran again
  11. Do I have to detach and reattach any brake lines or sensors like wheel speed etc as remember that was stuck in on my old Honda Can you squeeze clamp a brake line or are they ruined if try to stem them that way?
  12. This is the one looking at getting
  13. Thanks for your message was trying to get the whole leg, knuckle etc from a breakers like suggested think I've found one. The big number across the middle seems to match but the smaller code across top is slightly different so hoping will be correct double checking
  14. I did a new track rod as was only thing visibly bent
