  1. If your going to be doing a lot of work yourself I say get your self to halfords and get a 150piece tool set. proper good stuff. I use mine everyday at work, and EVERYTHING is garanteed. (not the ratchets) and while your there get some copper grease and penatrating oil. Rears are a piece of piss. Jack car up. Fire axel stands where they should go. wheels off. move the jack under the rear arm/axel thinggy, jack it up so the weights off. undo the shock bolts. SLOWLY let the jack down. enough so you can get the old springs out. once there out fire the new ones in. jack the rear arm back up, fire the bolts in. wheels on etc etc Think thats about up for the rears. only done a few front springs at work. sot so sure what to do there......

    Anti Roll bar

    I didn't have a good look. Juts noticed it was hitting it. I will have a proper look soon. I think I'll leave it, as it's not effected the handeling on the car. But I will change it when I can. Also get all new bushes while I'm there
