If you give me the old ones I will match them up with some high tensile ones but they will be cap heads so will need an allen key to hold the bolt when tightning up.

You will Not learn anything by letting other people do the work for you mate! You need to start having a go at stuff yourself...its the best way to learn matey happy Also you will get back on the road quicker as you are not waitin round for other people to turn up

Right alittle more relaxed now.

Will go back down the garage once i get Donna's car back from the dealers.

Phoned a garage to get a price on having the arms fitted £40 a hour plus VAT.

Think i'll do it myself i only have the rears to do as the front ones are on.

Little update.

Tried to fit the rear arms on the car today and every nut i came to rounded off.

So took out the good old grinder and tried that and guess what that didnt work now i am in a mess.

Managed to drind a nice hole in the rear subframe so i think i'll take the subframe off have it blasted and put all the arms and chuck some solid bushes in it while i am there.

Also took the big gay wing off as i am bored of it £60 if anybody wants it.

Also going to have to sort out the ride hight once the kits on as it far to low looks great but the bumper would be off as soon as i hit a stone.
