@thebusofwoe, how quickly can you get a pair of hub nuts for a Gen 4 hypothetically, and how much?

Cos we've managed to break another breaker bar trying to get these things off. So Damo has just committed to grinding them.

He ideally needs the car back on the road by Tuesday. :?

Big Damo grinding his nuts off. :lol:

So, Damo was a bit enthusiastic with his grinding & proceeded to 'clean up' the spindle as well. :roll:

Is it fair to assume that this driveshaft now needs replacing (we do theoretically have spares), or is there anybody on here who would not see this as a problem & consider re-using it? :?

Why do you need to take the driveshafts out to get the gearbox out?
