Drilling.. done that
Buggering about with spanners for ages... done that too
Is there a quicker way to get that pesky rod out of the front bush?
Let's try some B.F.I...

Brilliant and as you said on the phone, a little embarrassing for Volvo that isn't it! :D

I put more effort into removing the bloody wheels mate. Frightening!

I did explain to Andy at NVS that they were being Polybushed so I think he has (and quite rightly so), sent me the control arms with the worst bushings that he could find. They were an absolute bargain.... :D

Strangely, the 2nd one had the old type bush with the fluted rod in it. it put up much more of a fight than the modern bush that fell apart like a baguette lol.
Covered the place with some dodgy smelling fluid too.

Good work there Martin!!! Sometimes only brute force will do though. I watched my local indie release a wishbone from the balljoint by running at it with a big lump hammer. Not on my car I hasten to add!!
