Hi all,
Sorry if it is covered elsewhere but I am experiencing a metallic knock of a ball joint (I think) somewhere in the passenger side front. I've had the struts replaced and also the swaybar links because of a mechanic opinion which didn't really help. The only options left I think are the control and castor arm replacements.
The Haines manual seems to indicate they should just be able to be taken off. There is no mention of needing to compress the spring. I guess one just jacks the car up and take the wheel off to do the job.
Any tips on tools or technique would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Steve
