The tool I used is like this. [ATTACH] However, it is very fiddly to get it to bite. I also ordered one of these. [ATTACH] This is what I’ll...
Rod was from Superperformance. I’m pretty sure with the measurements and the febi or lemforder catalogue there’ll be a match. It’s £145 plus...
Hi there, Yes all done. You don’t need to take the rack out. Just extend the tie rod outwards on the side for removal. You’ll need a proper...
Looks fairly accessible with the rack in situ. I just need to pull the boot back, but might not even need a proper tie rod removal tool. Will...
I did have a quick look based on the numbers stamped on the arm but couldn’t find a match. Typical febi/lemforder arms are about 20 - 50 gbp.
The arm is a single piece. It’s febi and cost about 150gbp plus vat, so if anyone can work out febi part codes, might be able to save a little in...
Yep.. hill rod end is going on. It’s the inbound ball joint which has the play, so am replacing with a super performance arm. Fingers crossed it...
Excellent, thanks Mike. Changing steering arm next, then it’s geometry time.
Abrasive wheels worked perfectly and got rid of the hysol, and produced a nice finish. Thanks Mike! Good tip! Arms have new joints installed...
[ATTACH] Who ever did mine last got a bit excited with the stuff :confused:
Yeah have the wsm, and have the upper arm off and old ball joint pressed out. Was just concerned that certain camps say don’t lubricate ptfe...
And out of interest, did you use hill ball joints? As far as I can see these have a ptfe lining, presumably you don’t lubricate them as that would...
Perfect.. thanks Mike. I’ll park the chemicals :confused:
Hi Guys, In the process of changing some ball joints on my 360, was all going quite smoothly until I’ve come to clean out the previously applied...
Will do. Have posted another thread already on a couple of bits I know I’ll need to tackle. Slightly nervous coming from an R8 v10 as it was so...
Greetings, I shall be the new owner of a 2001 360 spider this week. The F1 fluid needs flushing and bleeding. I’d like to do it the proper way,...
Thanks for everyone’s input, based on this I’ve taken the plunge. 2001 spider in Rosso/crema. Its going to be a bit of a project car as I did a...
Fair enough.. I think when I read book times of 7 hours to remove and replace the cassette, it took me by surprise :D
Ok that’s reassuring. Just making sure I’m going into this with the necessary knowledge, limit the surprises. Have an R8 V10 at the moment and...
Evening all, I’m looking at getting a 360 so I can get back into some garage therapy. Enjoy working on my cars, have a lift etc. I’ve looked at...
