2ws convert.........

Post by LewisH » Sun Apr 21, 2013 10:06 am

Right, my car had to be recovered last night.

One of the 4ws tie rod end... Snapped or sheared off! Lucky for me it was at 3am, and I was only doing 30mph!

Now, I got everything undine. How do I get the lca's out from the joint on the hub end? That is the one part I could not budge!

Honda failed last night :(

undo the nut and hit the lca with a hammer where the joint goes through if you dont have a ball joint splitter like this
