jake, if you look at the video, it looks like the bolt is broken, i show it off for a couple secs. around the 7-8 sec mark in the video. isnt that nut where the ball should be connected? looks broken.

Ya Emad, it looks like it sheared off. That round part of the pivot ball sits in and pivots in that arm. It looks like it is stuck in that arm and sheared off. At least it's not an expensive fix lol assuming that's all it is.

Chris and/or Jake have you covered in the power tool department and I've got a transmission jack that goes low enough to use even with the car on tall jack stands. For the most part it's just an assortment of sockets and wrenches, all metric of course. I did mine with no power tools but it was a bietch, not impossible though. Also extensions of different lengths are a must. I have all of that covered but if Jake or chris help you, I'm sure they have it as well. I know Jake does for sure.

just a regular jack homey.. real question is how high you got your car.?. if you just used a HF jack, I can tell you right now its not high enough..

Just a 17mm, 10mm to move some brackets out of the way...some diff length exts for sure.. Driveshaft should already be out (4x17MM).. 12mm and a 14mm iirc..

I still need to get my clutch in and need an extra hand myself. Emad - if you help me, I will return the favor sir.. Stabbing the tranny (<--LOL) is no one man job..

Should be a 19 or 21MM..If its broke where I think it is - we wont need an extractor..
