Hi Klaus! Thanks for the reply.

So, I am to assume there won't be much fighting with the spring when attaching the new arm at the ball joint? Have you done a P2 (my car is a 2005)? The video you showed is for the 850/S70 platform - is your belief that the procedure should be similar except the ball joint arrangement?

If you look at the video at the link I supplied, you can see why the axle bolt has to come out - to get the movement needed, the hub needs to be pulled away so the axle actually falls free. In some blog I saw, a contributor stated you'll pull the axle in half at the joint if you don't pull the bolt.
