Weatherman said it will end in the early hours of Tuesday.

The race can be knocked out with a 1" socket on an extension bar. It fits just right, well my Halfords one does!

Nice one Robb. This sort of info ought to go into the strip down guide.

been following this, and it sounds easy to do, but i dont think id risk it, but on the other hand how do you know a garage is doing it right!

I think when my time comes, and it will, i will find someone local who knows what there doing and pay for them to do it for me!

Pity your all up north lol. sure theres a few heads local down south!

im down south but about 3 hour drive from you but I have full workshop that can do pretty much anything in

I think it depends on your skill set or alternatively failing that how brave/brash you are. Car Mechanics magazine used to give a spanner rating for jobs. Bear in mind it was a magazine for DIYers but if an oil change is 1 out 5 then I rate this as 3.5. It'd be so much nicer to do the job on a brand new and unused Jimny.

Whatever, remember a marathon begins with the first step. You have to start your mechanic's career somewhere; there is a first time for everything. Given detailed instructions like it used to be in Haynes manuals or lately in online guides certainly can get a beginner through most jobs.
