Clan Experienced Member Last Online: Today 14:20 Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: L/H side	dont forget new bolts as all the suspension bolts are stretch "use once only" bolts The 4 subframe bolts , the wishbone bolts , lower ball joint clamping bolts , horizontal lower strut bolts , I've seen a lower ball joint clamping bolt break after being used twice , the ball joint then detaches causing the wheel to flail about , not recommended ... Stretch bolts act like plastic after being used once , they will tighten and tighten and stretch with insuficient clamping force . They wont do up and get tighter and tighter as will normal nuts and bolts . use the angle torque too , those 4 subframe bolts need a LOT of energy to tighten correctly . __________________ My comments are only based on my opinions and vast experience .
