Pissed off isn't the word, just hit the mother of all pot holes on a national speed limit road, wasn't exactly on the speed limit but I was close, any idea on what this is?

Drop link, cheap fix

Perhaps consider uprated ones from CDF or Whiteline.

Got her home and have ordered the bits but does anyone know how much if a job these are to fix without a ramp? Can't get onto my dads one till the weekend after next but need the car this weekend

Ideally you want to lift the car while keeping the suspension "under load" ie - driving it onto some ramps.

If you jack it onto stands though, you can then jack up your wheel/hub gently so it all lines up.

Hardest bit I've found is removing old drop-links. They've got a flat part to clamp onto to stop it spinning, but on older links it normally just disintegrates and the grinder/dremel ends up coming out

Lol looks like it's a trip to find a ramp somewhere then, looking at the old ones they are in pretty bad shape, should be fun getting them off. Cheers fella
