I did exactly the same job on my daughters Vauxhall Adam. She was driving it and the wishbone snapped out of the subframe. Fortunately she was pulling out of a junction so wasn’t too bad. Turns out there had been a recall on these due to poor materials at manufacture. If you’re buying a corsa or Adam you’re gonna need to properly check the subframe and connected Components. I couldn’t remove the roll bar bushes even though I bought new ones. They weren’t bad so I left them. Biggest ballache was exhaust bolts. Even with plenty of heat they sheered. Had them drilled and replaced.
hey man, just found your channel recently and I'm loving it. bought myself a Astra h sport 1.7 cdti 2010. I don't know anything about cars but I'm trying to learn through your videos. Any advice would be appreciated

Done a cracking job on that mate. Not an easy task on your own doing the subframe. Can't believe how rusty it all was! Be on the road in no time :D
Thanks for your comment much appreciated 😎 yup you better believe it!
