Hi folks,

My 607s drop links need replacing... is it something I could do it myself or do I need to take it to a garage... can it worked on a normal jack?

Ok... I have reading a lot about it for other cars but its not clear if I have to jack up the suspension as well as the car?

Yes you can do it on a jack but you will have to jack the front up so both wheels are off the floor or you will be fighting against the anti roll bar

Just jack the car up, and unscrew the nuts and swap them.

If they've been on the car a while, they may have rusted up and you might have to cut them off.

Replace the nuts when you fit them as well.
