Had a bit of a s**tter on thursday night, short-story: driver thought it was a great idea to over take me on an island, I braked and moved over, clipped a curb and snapped a ball joint. Then waited 3.5hrs with police for recovery because I was blocking the road!!
Recovery dumped my car in the street rather than the driveway so I had to work in the road
Motorfactors round corner had no idea what I meant when I asked for a Ball joint press tool so had to improvise! Used a variety of G Clamps and sockets, and a copper-hide hammer and popped both bits out in an hour.
Then I spent an hour looking for my snap ring pliers, bloody things.
All done
Even got chance to fit the Sport interior from the MB2
Much better!
