    Your breaking up, are you going through a tunnel?

    I think that the steering box and linkage is the only thing left as original! On the plus side, no more mysterious clunking when I go around a roundabout. Either ball joint or rear track rod replacement has fixed that. My list of mysterious sounds is shortening!

    I don’t know much about wheel alignments, but I’m guessing that 35mm is bad?

    Yes, 35mm is just a tad excessive, your +1.1 looks good to me

    I can't see where the ball joint removal tool is hydraulic

    The screw down bit is one of those fluid filled things that push’s the plunger when pressure is applied to the screw. Not sure what to call it if it’s not hydraulic.

    True, because once we’ve saved up enough to replace all the bits with new parts, the 1st ones you replaced will be due for replacing! A never ending cycle!

    I used to run up to 15mm toe out on race cars and people thought that was crazy?

    Initial turn in will be 'sharp'.

    Does that mean that 1 wheel was pointing mostly forward and the other is facing in towards the radiator by 35mm? I don’t know anything about wheel alignments
