Preperation

[/FONT][/I]
I have found that there are easy ways to keep the relevant bolts together. If I remove the starter motor, I will tape the 3 bolts together and label as starter motor. On the mounts I will carefully place mount and bolts together. Often once an item is removed I will loosely screw the bolts back in. You will not be left with a pile of nuts and bolts this way.


Jack car up, Apply handbrake, jack the car up on both sides and use axle stands. Remove both front wheels.


[Unbolt passenger side wishbone, 4x 15mm bolts, unbolt antiroll bar where it passes through the wishbone and unbolt track rod end.

Remove brake calliper, 2x 19mm, gently ease the brake pipe out the clip on the damper. Tie up the calliper out the way.

Unbolt hub, undo 2x strut to hub bolts. You will have to undo the abs sensor to pull the lower bolt out fully from the strut. I undid the Allen key and tapped it round to allow the bolt clearance.
