to get the rear trailing arms off on the drivers side u will need to remove the rubber filler hose that gpes into the fuel tank... as u wont be able to remove the bolt otherwise....
u have pm regarding springs

Might be time to get a new one of them, cause its probably the original and no doubt perish in my hands when i take it off!
Thanks for the P.M will call you at some point

Sounds to me like someone's had it off before and put the bolt in the wrong side?

no mate.... trust me the bolts go from the centre out always... as it would be immpossible to remove the bolt if it was the other way round as it would touch the chassis of the car...Martinaston wrote:Sounds to me like someone's had it off before and put the bolt in the wrong side?
