Hi all
Help needed I've looked on here but can find anything . I've a 2006 mk11 1.9 dci she failed the MOT on a o/s lower ball joint now I know there a swine to change so went for what I thought would be the easy option and got a complete new bottom arm . Can anyone one tell me how the hell do you get the front bolt out please :oops:

Slacken off the rad subframe so the front rad can be moved out of the way bolt then just passes.
Long time since I did mine sorry for being a bit vague but you have to move the radiators out of the way.
