- can this be done without dropping the front sub frame? (think you US guys call it the sway bar?)

 

The bushes can be done in with everything in situ but I think you will struggle getting the bar out. I will have a look through some of my pictures.

 

Thanks, it doesn't look like it will come out easily.
I just want to clean it up a bit, and it's the parts in the wheel arch that are starting to rust, so its no great shakes if I can't get it out.
But it would be good to know before I waste another weekend afternoon :-)

 

Yep, no way will it come out without dropping the sub frame.


Here are a couple of pics.

 

thanks for those. I guess it's staying put then!
