Re: Special Tools Dave, I have a carbide drill, for the tough bits, which I have used for the rack and the tie rods. Stole the idea from Ken... see his pic http://www.flickr.com/photos/30132857@N ... otostream/ If its done this way, you dont need to take the wheel off, to do the greasing. Drop me a pm or email Peter

Dave. Any casting is likley to be forging and even if it were, it'd be cast steel so it can usually be cut drilled and welded without any worries un like cast iron which is a completely different kettle of fish.
