would a 4 wheel alignment be ok

geo'd is that subaru only or can any garage do it buddy

what if i moved bolt slightly erlier when i removed nut would i be able to score a line on hub arm so when its put back into new shock arms it lines up

still none the wiser lmao

any tips apretiated

Ok i loosened front nuts on lower hub/strut but i didnt finish strut change because i thought i read somewere about marking something but couldnt remember were it was so could anyone clarify what i should mark for alignment thanks

Fella in motor factors told me earlier always do furthest from servo 1st he said he always did when he was a mechanic

So its ns rear, os rear, ns front and is front

So rear left, rear right then is it front left then front right?

I'm needing to replace both front calipers, while I have never done it before I'm confident I can but I'm just wondering because car has ABS do I need to bleed whole system and if so is there specific sequence or can I just bleed front 2 brakes

Worked that way on BMW, rover 75 and astra mk4 lol

I'm planning on changing full suspension and have the shocks/springs all assembled ready to go on and I've done it on other cars but am just curious once bottom bolts are undone can hub be knocked off lower strut while its still connected at top and once free just undo top nuts and slide it out?

ok so its the crash protection i was going to cut a curve into, im glad i asked, maybe i should find a different exhaust lol

ok i got new exhaust system on from manifold back, but backbox pipe sits low and there is no note like i had before with rotten pipe so i fitted jap universal exhaust wich wouldnt fit up properly into recess because metal plate behind bumper and had a lovely note but way way to loud so my question is would it be safe to cut some of the metal so it sits up a bit better and any way to quiten it down a little

So flange wouldn't fit?

No I think you was correct buddy n/a would have smaller diameter than twin turbo bb

Seller says bg5 mk2 won't fit bh5 mk3, is this correct

What about bh5 twin turbo exhaust with actuator on non turbo bh5

Will backbox only from bg5 fit non turbo bh5 estate

Wd40 did squat lol, managed to cut lower bolt enough to put spanner on and break it but then fubar'd hacksaw blade lol, so wondered if I get a new hacksaw and remove blade slip over downpipe and put blade back in will I be able to cut other bolt

Ol give that a whirl buddy, thsnkd

There is just no movement buddy

How space is very tight to get anything in

OK people I've changed exhausts on other cars no problems, and while bolts on manifold to cat are not rusty by any means they just won't budge so any tips appreciated
