Title: fit yr front bearings for you!
Post by: PeteG40 on November 01, 2009, 03:03:17 PM
just to say I have a vw tool for getting bearings in/out and bushes etc.  If anyone wants to bring it to me, for some beer monies i'll help them get their old front bearing out and new one in!

This is what Nige off Clubgti and Northloop created so he could do them on the car when at tracks etc.  Wonder if something could be done for a polo?

easier to take the leg off tbh, only the steering arm and top nut off to get to this stage getting driveshaft out.
