Especially if compared to fronts. Doable, you will find several threads on the forum but no-one can say it's easy (well, I had some very good luck with the latest one I did but I ended up having a play in it, which I still wonder why....)

Expect to be about £200 lighter but you will still be sane.....thats assuming you don,t have a 30 ton press, a320ftlb torque wrench,and several hours on your hands.

LOL!
I have access to all of that funnily enough, but I'm not going to use it

Into the garage then.. (once I work out where the rumble is coming from.. )
