FITING LOCKRIGHT TO MQ FRONT
God of Magnificant Ideas!

Oh yeah .... almost forgot.... a shortcut to save time...
take off the wheel,
then the locking hubs,
then the wheel bearings ( 65mm socket required for that )
remove the brake caliper & disk.
There are 6 bolts that hold the outer hub to the knuckle ( the disc brake protection plate is also held by them)
remove these 6 bolts and the outer hub,
This will then allow tha CV and drive shaft to come out,
saves having to remove the hub all together so the kingpins are left undisturbed as is the draglink.... 6 bolts verses 9 bolts and a whole heap of ugly grease !!!
You will not have to remove the pinion shaft, but if you are doing bearings aswell then make sure that you count the number of turns you undo the nut that holds it in place. When you reassemble it do up the nut EXACTLY the same number of turns..... if you dont then you run the risk of stuffing the "crush tube"..... nut size is a 27mm socket, to hold the drive shaft flange use a piece of plate with 2 holes drilled in it and just drop the driveshaft bolts in it to hold it
have fun and allow a saturday to do it in !!!
