TBH I don't remember seeing anyone on this site carrying out this replacement as yet![]()
If you haven't already downloaded the D22 workshop manual from this site then do and have a good 'dig' around it to find the answers :thumbleft:
Good luck mate and try to do a 'How to' and post it for others if poss :salute:
From replacing my front discs I would assume you would remove Caliper/Disc/Drive Shaft.
Jack up under the lower arm and 'crack' the top joint and lever it away (disconecting the shock first) then 'crack' the lower joint.
Leaving the jack under the arm keeping the torsion bar under tension.
The ball joint must be riveted to the arm or screwed into a thread :scratch:
Just some thoughts on how it must be configured not a 'how to' :mrgreen:
Let us know :thumbright:
