Okay...I'm halfway through the subframe replacement.
I thought I might be able to cheat a little...so I have a subframe hanging
loose, hanging by the control arms, which are hanging by the ball joints
underneath the rear struts.
How do I remove the ball joints from the hub? (I figure I just use a ball
joint fork...)
How do I get them back INTO the hub? (hammer and block of wood?)
My car is a 1989 90 quattro, late VIN with the rear suspension that
has "seperate wheel bearing/shock absorber housing".
Bentley gives directions on how to do this with the OLD style suspension...but
not MINE!?!
Help!
