When i said i'd do it for her it was after watching a YouTube video, it looked an easy job, jack car up take wheel off undo 3 bolts remove suspension arm fit new arm do up 3 bolts fit wheel on and lower jack easy but no my daughters KA is different to the one in the video i watched as there was a big lump of metal bolted to where the one bolt i had to take out was so it had to come off as well took me 3 hours and it was fucking freezing I had to unbolt the front bumper to remove that lump of metal luckily every bolt came undone without any problems. Saved the daughter £108 in labour oh wait it saved her £178 because i paid for the part as well Pain in the arse aren't they. Fiat 500 with a ford badge so it's going to be more complicated. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Was going to meet up with Dani for lunch, but it’s foggy and wet and seems like it’s not clearing up except for a little rain later on. We’re driving instead Now sitting outside my local rural supermarket waiting for him, and check out this puck up. Aixam, no license required, engine sounds like something from a well’s water pump. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All cars these days are built on the same platforms there's no individuality anymore. They are all just rebadged shite. If you want a proper car buy a pre 1990-1995 car 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
