A lot of very useful advice has already been written on this subject but having just done my off side one and half way through near side the heavens have opened so thought I'd put my two penny'worth in the pot !
Firstly don't think they were too bad but manlfolds were off so seemed a good time to get at them.

removed anti-roll bar brackets, gives a little more spanner room.
A good ratchet ring is handy, mine are fixed end not so good,difficult to get square onto the nut, think one with a swivel end would be better

Once loosened thought may be able to hold nut and turn mounting, worked a bit until got to rusty part of thread so this little chap came in handy



Going back together reasonably straight forward except getting the big washer to stay on the bottom stud while fat fingers try to get nut on !





frown still raining but job done, hopefully dry in the morning and can get exhaust back together and then the all important test drive !
