It was so easy. I drove the car into a big garage, went to work and came back 2 hours later to find they'd fitted themselves. Although I did think the parking was a bit steep at £45 though. :o

From the sounds of it I'd have had a hell of a job getting the drivers one off without it being on ramps. I'd also have paid £30+ for a torque wrench and at -4* this morning it seemed to make sense....

Agree - i got my "mechanic" to do my brakes last month - got them on Trade Club and he took £40 quid to do it - again it wasa cold wet day so i didnt fancy rolling about for hours for the sake of £40.

Changed your wishbones? If your surgeon said your wishbones needed replacing I'd look elsewhere.... Wishbones are only found in birds, so he must be a quack!! Sorry, enough of the bird jokes ;D

Can't you just put your head onto a new body Wurzel? and have a cup of tea and nice slice of cake ;D

That's what I'll be doing next Monday with my front [size=22]£95[/size] :o wheel bearing. The last wheel bearing I bought was about £20 for the front of my Cortina, but that one didn't come with a bloody hub! >:(

£95 :o
Matchless got me mine for around £30 - £40. Which reminds me, I still need to give him the money :-[

Have you noticed when something goes wrong for 1 of us we all get it like measles. My front n/s is making more noise than normal - hoped the brake was just dragging a bit but I fear its the bearing :-/

Sorry Barry - got you mixed up with The Barge Captain:
Re: Handles?
Reply #22 - 24. Jan 2007 at 14:57 I see the "handle" thing as a bit of fun. If i am contacting another forum member via PM then i give my proper name, as you would feel like a bit of a tit phoning the house, the wife answering, and having to ask for the Barge Captain. There are a few on here who know my real name, and most who don't, but whether you use a pseudonym or your real one, your reputation is built on your on-line knowledge and behaviour. Would you think any more or less of me if you knew that I was christened Wurzel Maurice Dagwort?
No, didn't think so
Just my two peneth worth.
