    Tie Rod End

    As im attempting to remove the tie rod end i just cant get it to seperate from the hub/bearing housing. :mad: i bought a ball joint splitter the type with a bolt u tighten to split and its just not the right size :roll: .... im trying not to damage the rod ends. i've tryed the jack on the bottom of the bolt and pushing down/hitting with rubber mallet on the hub/bearing housing.

  5. I'm ordering a set of Polyurethane Bushes for my wishbones and anti roll bar. a friend of mine replaced his bushes for polyurethane bushes (On a mkii Golf GTi 16v), and was telling me about the steering feeling strange after the upgrade, the way he solved the problem was to upgrade the steering rack bushes with a polyurethane type. He said the rubber 1 looked fine but still solved the problem. Any 1 had a similar problem and found the solution? Should i order the steering rack bush for my Corrado? Any help welcome :)

    Strut Tops

    I've read that the VR6 strut tops fit my g60 but i know that the spring seats are diffrent. so i guess my question/questions are has any1 done this mod? can i use the original spring seats from my original strut top? or do i need 2 buy a replacment aftermarket spring seat? Any info about this mod would be appreciated.
