easiest way i would say would be to pop thecentre cap out the wheel, the put the wheel back on and drop the car on the floor, then undo the big nut on the driveshaft, the weight of the car should stop if spinning if its very tight!! might have to get sum1 on the brakes at the same time.. chris

cant realy put the car back down on the ground with the gearbox off.

the gearbox goes back on tomorrow though. then i think its going to a garage to get the driveshafts and starter motor changed as am going down to edinburgh for a couple of days for new year.
