thanks guys, as i said hessy it was a fabulous write up which got me started today and iam probably 95% done unfortunately one of the bolts holding the hub to the strut snapped off and its one of the longer ones
that go through the steering link arm, ah well i will soak it in wd40 and wedge it open and leave overnight!
after all tomorrow is another day!

Having a bit of trouble sorting the free play out in the bearing, we fitted a new bearing and seals and checked evertything and still can't get ilrid of it, we ended up stripping treads in cv joint gr****! I might replace the hub this time , where did you get your one hessy?
