How do you remove the front spindle?
I've removed the caliper and rotor. There appear to be three bolts
holding the spindle on. I have removed those, now what. It seems like
it should just lift up, but doesn't. Is there a trick or special tool needed.
Will reassembly be a pain once it is off. Thanx for any advice you may
have, there is no substitute for personal experience.
update - i removed the A arm, that released the top and side. Now I'm left
with just getting the bottom separated from the ball joint? Is there a trick
to this?

If you are referring to the HUB/wheel bearing assy, it should come right off after you remove the bolts. (at least thats the way it worked with my C4) :cheers:
