just successfully ordered complete lower control arm with ball joint for both sides!👌👌

required nearside - £39 posted. also got a offside one for £28 posted. not sure why the driver sides ones are far cheaper?. . .

CV boots arrives saturday morning at 7. woke up by mister postman banging on the door LOL

well weekend did not go as planned. got woken up nice and early to tackle all the things bar the Cat.

started with the lower control arm. removed all the bolts but the ball joint bolt. when i got to the ball joint i reallised its upwards  facing so its not something i could put a socket around without removing the hub. went out to get a comprehensive Clarke Pro spanner set including all sizes from 6mm to 30mm and then 32mm (no 31mm...). let it soak in GT85 (wd40) whilst i was out.
even when doubling up the spanners i could not get enough leverage to get the nut to budge. then let it soak again and went out to get a socket to remove the hub nut if thats what its called to remove the hub. bought 2 comprehensive 72t ratchet socket sets 3/8th and also a 1/2 inch set 5mm - 32mm (again missing only 31mm).   got back to relalisez the nut was actually bigger than 32mm.

 i went back to the Haynes manual i have and in there it does not mention the nut size. is anyone able to confirm with me the nut size for the the bolt?

i know it sounds stupid, i would have needed to remove the hub anyway to replace the cv boot but for some reason my mind didnt click!

Hub or hub nut? Just get a length of piping over the breaker bar if it's 1/2 in or you'll be struggling no need if it's a 3/4 breaker bar as that will do it no probs.Get somebody to hold it on the brakes if the brakes are already off then put the wheel back on and put the socket through the centre cap.
