carl0s Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) Last time I did this on my UK car it was a nightmare with me having to go get an angle grinder. This time around I already had the angle grinder out. I used a wire brush and wd-40 on the threads, and I have a 1/2" sq. drive 5mm hex piece for the breaker bar instead of a 5mm allen key. I only needed the angle grinder on three of the nuts. The job was actually a pleasure to do on this nice sunny day, although I got some tinnitus from the angle grinder I'm very grateful to Paul Whiffin / Whifbitz for supplying the drop links and nuts at an exceptional price and delivering very quickly too. I think that'll be my first choice place for OEM parts now as he's much cheaper than Mr Manley.
