OK, so the upper rad hose I planned to install the other day was too short (must be 740T or something) so waiting for hose.
Got stuck into the front brakes and suspension today. Struts off, ball joints removed and lower control arms off. Will replace all bushes and ball joints, tie rods and upper strut bearings. Also replaced the brake distribution block and front brake pipes. The block was leaking and the pipes were a bit chewed up on the nuts at the outer ends as I had to use vice grips to undo the brake hoses. Have new brake hoses to go on as well. Sorry for the crappy photos! :)
One side ball joint I could not remove from the lower strut tube bracket so just had to grab a spare...usually my ball joint tool works a treat but this one was too stubborn and even with the impact wrench, hammer etc no dice.
As you can see from the last pic, the bushes were fairly well past their use-by date LOL!
