Haha. for me it will be more like 85 miles. I will try my best though. If anything its an excuse to get out in the beast. But I am rebuilding my mates scoob Monday and Tuesday so it all depends on how much we can get done and how much beer we drink in the process! haha

Hi Rob, Hopefully I’ll make it in the GTO.

I managed to get the knuckle off but the outer bearing cage is still stuck inside it so I’m taking it to a garage with a press on saturday to get it pressed out and the new hub pressed in.

The steering arm end would not budge and I had to end up borrowing a ball joint splitter to get it loose after hours of hammering. Was driving me nuts!

Bad news is that whilst “helping” me, one the guys at our warehouse ended up braking the ABS sensor. So now i’m considering disabling the ABS as a new sensor is quite expensive.

Anyway don’t want to derail this thread so pm me if you’ve got any advice.

Thanks
