Hi all,

My polo failed the MOT y-day on the front wheel bearings and cv boot.

so 2 day i gat all the parts and stripped the struts out, problem is the old bearings outer shell is seezed into the strut.

Tried beating it with BIG hammer and steel bar but wont budge

Any Ideas??

theyre proper tight mate...it will take a good beating to get it out with a club hammer and drift/chisel

can you get a lift to a friendly back street garage?? chances are they will press it out for a drink
