I meant match the length of the new ones to the old one to try and get it right? Is that a battery and tray out jobbie then?

You do have to take the battery tray and ecu out to get good access to the rod area.

Doesnt look too hard once you seen it done (matt did mine), just fiddly, really fiddly so have patience!

Also worth mentioning that i did grease my uprated rods but they do rattle like f**k when on WOT going through the gears.

Doesnt really bother me to be honest as most of the time i have my music on anyway

Gear change is not much different to previous really but i think thats because my original setup was in good nick so if you have a current sloppy gearchange then they should improve things alot

Just pull harder! Worst that can happen is you'll punch yourself in the face when it pops off, but if the ball joint is that tight in the first place it probably doesn't need replacing.

I even tried the spanner under the joint trick and was like I AM GOING TO f**kING SNAP SOMETHING HERE lol.

Ill give it another go when i change the gearbox mount as it will likely be 10x easier
