ahaha struggles of searching for car parts and car politics whilst at work when your supervisors set next to you lol. gotta type fast to get it off my screen again lol

i seen your engine bay pic and i think i know what im looking for now. will give take 2 tonight. 3 weeks later and still not got the subframe out lol. hopefully once the steering rack is out, subframe should come out easily. is there anything else i need to remove/ undo? or any tips to making the jobs easier. or any parts worth replacing whilst the car is being taken apart??

Tbf it's a big job you are taking on,once the rack is out of the way that should be it and the subframe should be free.

well yeah you gotta do what you gotta do i suppose.
spent so much here and there and paid a fair wad for it too. thinking about it i prolly got more in invoices atm with brand new parts and things here and there for it, than what i paid for the fecking thing!!

so its either fix the shed or burn it lol.

is it sale to leave the rack 'hanging' on the tie-rod ends?

or will they need undoing from the hub too?!

now we're cooking with gas
subframe out!!
didnt need cutting up and welding the captive nut at all. just thought i'd try the impact on it. bolts came out with ease

anyone know where i can get the holes drilled and retapped for new bolts?

Do them yourself? By getting a tap and die kit.

If only you'd you had the impact gun on from the start

aha i did have the impact gun from day one. but its a shitty clarke mains one. its massive. i didnt jack up the car high enough and its quite low, so low that by fat belly almost touches the underside lol. and the axle stands i have is the best hight it will go, the axle stands will go higher but the jack wont go no higher lol

also i only bought the deep impact sockets thinking its best. but that added even more issues for clearance and coulnt even get under the car with them
