Garage next door to my work booked up until December, fixed it in yard outside today - 6 hours (even with #Makita #impactwrench to remove axle bolts) - had to fight cursed #XZN spline bolts in awkward position (should have raised axle stands about 30-50mm higher!) to remove old set and retorque new ones to 70 Nm + 90° (not fun!).
All other bolts such as caliper bolt, control arm to ball joint and even big axle bolt and axle itself didn't give me any drama, just these 3 (mechanic lent me the one long ratchet I didn't have). Got 200Nm + 180° on axle bolt with beast of a breaker bar
Took every bit of strength in my body, went on test drive just now and there is 0 noise (thought both corners were goosed but front left seems OK for now)
