Hello All,
I did a search, and could not find a step by step procedure.
I think that it will also be very similiar for earlier models, but please check yours.
Firstly, I would like to thank the many various threads and posts by BB members that I used to study from.
Also, I would like to thank papajam, a Mentor in every sense of the word, who always takes my calls and walked me through this change.
Next, while I did take a lot of pictures during the change, there were a few steps that I did miss or thought of a better way of doing the step later. So if you see the same picture, once to take bolts out and later the same picture to put the bolts back in, you are seeing the same picture, but the step is correct.
Some of the non usual tools that you may or may not have but will need for this project:
24mm socket
22mm socket
24mm wrench
22mm wrench
27mm wrench
pickle fork
Lots of sandwich baggies to keep nuts, bolts washers and the like together
Sharpie to write on those baggies
And if your like me, I like to wear gloves, so lots of gloves.
Charged up camera
If I have missed something, please let me know and I will correct it.
I am not a mechanic, but like most of us that have Alfa's, am learning and hopefully, this will help someone take the job on.
Let's start!
