Removing front suspension components (both sides)
Disconnect the ABS line from the mounting in the spring strut.
Remove:
- the screw for the drive shaft using a screwdriver in the brake disc vents
- the link from the anti-roll bar
- the nut for the ball joint and link arm. Clean the exposed threads outside the nut. Spray using rust solvent before removing the nut.
NOTE:
Counterhold with a Torx TX 40 in the ball joint top when removing the nut. This is so that the ball joint gaiter does not turn.
