If at first you dont succeed,avoid skydiving...

I can't Paul, Got a dead Golf GTI in there & trying to work out the easiest way to remove the steering rack

I hate bleeding brakes, they can be a real pain at times .... My eldest lad bought me one of those airline operated bleeding gadgets .... Still in the box, old habits die hard & all that

Drop the frame at the back to give you room to move it about Ronnie.

Having another go later so hopefully get it sorted.
