Having given up replacing the lower ball joint the garage also had issues having to remove the whole hub and the extract the broken pinch bolt! All back together with no knocks/rattles now! They also had to patch up the brake backing plate with a bit of weld before it fell off! Unfortunately due to the design on the legacy to remove the backing plat you have to remove the bearing as well and the fact the pinch bolt was corroded solid means the bearing is probably in the same state!
So on the way to me is a set of JDM front hubs and Alloy wishbones which I will refurbish with new bearings and fully poly bush before swapping over. Anybody got any tips for paints for the hub/steering knuckle?
