I've currently got the front of my car up on 2 bricks, as when I fitted the wheels & put it back on the floor, the hubs came off

there are no drive-shafts in the hubs, they went with the engine, but they were a bit fooked anyway!

I've got 2 front strut assembly thingies with hubs attached in the garage, reckon if I swap them over they should be ok?

Adam-D says his was on wheels with no shafts in them, but i need to move my car to face the other way in the drive

wana get this done before it gets dark

cheers
