Hi, just replacing a front wheel bearing on my 18T, had a bit of a job removing the two bottom ball joints:zx11: , the rear one was not too bad, but i could not find a ball joint splitter big enough to go over the front taper, its 25mm compared to the rear one being 20mm. anyway, a few very big hits with a lump hammer on the side of the housing and a bottle jack on the end of the joint finally cracked it! My question is doed any one know of a tool that will fit the front arm. Thanks,Mitch. P.S why has my front left wheel bearing only lasted 30K?
