ok

removed the old one easily enough although the ball joint drop link things are a joke!!

then it got hard

i threaded the new one in somehow only to realise i should probably try n press the bushes in. so i removed it out and put the bushes in; tried to thread it back through but the bushes/brackets were obstructing its refit.

i then found a clamping tool so thought i would remove the bushes form the roll bar so i could get it back on

i also droped the wishbones via 2 x 17mm bolts; i then went to re fit the bar and oculd not thread it through for shit. the brackets would not face the right way at all. then it rained. so im not anti roll bar less for a few days

half way there i guess!
