Daverse 175 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 you can do it with a hammer and a screwdriver. but 9/10 you will break the ball joint, just get a splitter, think mine was a fiver Link to post Share on other sites

Lukey. 381 Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 You'll need a 6mm allen key and cut it so it will fit in the middle, as the threaded post will spin and not tighten up, and a splitter will make it super easy, there's little room with a spanner, zero room for a hammer. Had to modify my splitter too as it was too narrow. If you are wanting to torque it up correctly you'll need crow foot spanners Link to post Share on other sites
