Right! after a few days skiving* I got back on with this horror lovely vehicle today.

For all lovers of suspense, these are the remains of the snapped bolts. (except the one I dropped and couldn't find). Sorry about the photo quality, but I forgot the camera and had to make do with an android tablet thing instead.
So, how did the bolts come out? Molegrips? No... Easy out? No... Harold, the mild mannered Janitor? Eh, no.

Much like the lady/baby/huge head analogy earlier, I had to make a small* incision.

Leaving a minute and barely noticable scar on the undercarriage.

I still need a track rod end, but other than that, it's back together. I'll consult the failure list again tomorrow and decide what to fix next.
