Hi all,

Last night a friend and I were trying to reassemble the control arm of my 2004 S60R and ended up dislocating the inner joint of the axle shaft? Does anybody have any input on how to get this back in? Will I need a new axle? How does this come apart?

Also, are there any helpful hints for easier reassembly of the control arm to the ball joint?I have read that disconnecting the spindle from the strut may help. Thanks!

Thanks a lot! That will probably help a lot. I am going to try and get everything apart tomorrow and evaluate how much damage I did.
