Pesky jones:
So you couldn't get the passenger side wishbone out without lifting the gearbox slightly? Did you loosen any of the mounts before jacking it up or just kept them as they were and raised it slightly?

r5gtt:
Gearbox bolts x4 out to get clearance as I did try to do it without taking th bolts out but the box wouldn't raise high enough to get the bolt out as it's a very long bolt too

Pesky jones:
Strange, I haven't seen anyone need to raise the gearbox to remove the wishbone unless im missing something. Thought it was just three ball joint bolts, front bush bolt, then the three rear bushing bolts to drop the rear bush console and the whole thing will just drop down

r5gtt:
Unless I was doing something wrong the bolts too long to come out for the front wishbone bush and definitely won't clear the gearbox as that didn't lift high enough when I jacked it up. Mine is dsg so could be because it's a longer box

Pesky jones:
Ah I see. Strange one - see what happens when I do mine
