lozz the inner bolt needs marking up mate. if you look very close you will see the big washer is on the bolt side and the bolt is not in the center of it.

yup mate £70 a side
they said theyve had trouble getting them off on some 406s,
only trouble i had was the ball part kept moving alan key part rounded off so iramed a pair of mole grips inther and clamped it - peice of cake iwas looking at my angle grinder at one stage tho
the top links almost fell off once bolts was out,
and ihad to laugh out of buying one set of top links off ebay didnt arive and ordering another set that didnt arive too
and going out buying a set from peugeot ihave 8 sets of lovely drop links idont need ebay sellers keep asking if theyve arived yet err no isay ,, strangely postman pat keeps bringing me top links seems ebay sellers are honest afterall

just let us know when you need a set and iwill send them,
ive just sent one ebay seller a message saying a few sets have arrived,
idont think he will be wanting them back postage is not cheap to ireland iwont be paying for the postage anyways
iwont tell the other seller more have arrived hes got very bad feedback anyway serves him right
