Hi Callum I find the easiest way to do a frame bolt is to take the 2 long bolts out through the side and leave it on axle till you get it away from car then you can tackle it better... In fairness the last one I did had ball joint still on new axle..

nick2303 · Apr 29, 2011

if the new axle has ball joint attached cant you attach yr a frame to the ball on the new axle?

Just take the 2 long bolts out through sides mate if theres one on new axle much easier

Exactly Nick, easiest way as you'll damage the rubber on the joint and need to change it anyway!
