Hammer ! That's not a hammer. A hammer needs 2 hands to lift it and a good solid endI got the parts separated. Luckily a guy from work had a big boy AJ. Quick bike ride to his and she lives again. Didn't really take any progress pictures. I always forget to... was an absolute ballache.

On a normal day, I'd use the biggest hammer in my toolbox. But as I borrowed the AJ, I didn't want to break it, I've broken one or two borrowed tools in the past (father inlaw runs in fear whenever I go round), and I didn't fancy it again. It just feels wrong.Hammer ! That's not a hammer. A hammer needs 2 hands to lift it and a good solid end
Once kds explained you have to cut away the armature to get at it I couldn’t get a 50mm either so put it in a vice. Resulting extension bars nearly snapped the workbench to bits before it gave off with few whelts on top of the torque appliedThis is going about as well for me as it did for RRDT...
Aye, I resorted to using bolt cutters for speed, as it took about 5 snips to break off all of the shoulder. That gave me room to get the AJ on. After that, it took all of my bodyweight on the AJ, using the ground to stop the knuckle bar from moving. Went with a hell of a bang. Thought I'd broke it.Once kds explained you have to cut away the armature to get at it I couldn’t get a 50mm either so put it in a vice.

You did well get it off with that
Bit of a shaggy dog type story this one - there is some RR content.
The doris dropped her wedding ring this morning, we both heard it roll across the floor, can't find it, think it might have dropped into a gap where I really aught to be putting some skirting over, so of course it's my fault. No problem, I'll finally get a use for the usb boreoscope I bought cheap from Lidl a couple of years ago. Can't get the fucking thing to work.
So I go outside to get a little inspection mirror from the toolbox in back of my 90. Little Led torch, mirror wafting around all over the place while standing on me head, still cant find it. By now the doris is on the verge of tears, don't worry it's not going anywhere, I'll buy a proper boreoscope and we will find it.
Go back outside to put mirror back in toolbox, be a good idea to put the charger on "Buttercup", haven't used her for a month.
IT IS ONE OF THOSE FUCKIN DAYS, ONLY GOT A FLAT FUCKIN TYRE ON MY FUCKIN PRIDE AND FUCKIN JOY.
BASTARDS.
I'm starting to think this house arrest aint quite all it's cracked up to be.

They are hydraulic dampers, so does require oil. No idea what viscosity BMW called for, but they also require bleeding before fitting as air can get in if they're stored flat.I stripped damper and filled with 10w40 that I had from engine oil change.
There is opposing thoughts as to wether there should be oil in it but seemed to rejuvenate mine and was oil in it when I took it off
Nice language.Bit of a shaggy dog type story this one - there is some RR content.

Reminds me of the mums in the school playground when waiting to pick up their kids, only frog hoppers is a bit more toned down than theirs.Nice language.
