Specifically developed for precision drilling of the top suspension bolt on aluminium and steel steering knuckles found across VAG Group vehicles, this kit provides a reliable solution for one of the most problematic and labour-intensive tasks in suspension servicing.
Over time, the upper suspension bolt becomes heavily corroded due to its exposed position—subjected to water ingress, road salt, and environmental grime. This makes traditional removal methods such as twisting or hammering not only ineffective, but potentially damaging, often resulting in broken steering knuckle clamps or severely deformed bolts.
The jig clamps securely around the steering knuckle while the suspension remains on the vehicle. It guides the drill precisely to the centre of the corroded bolt, enabling accurate and safe material removal without misalignment.
Key Benefits:
Designed for use on both aluminium and steel VAG steering knuckles
Eliminates risk of snapping clamps or damaging adjacent components
Secure on-vehicle clamping ensures stable and centralised drilling
Adjustable jig accommodates various knuckle geometries
Saves time, reduces technician effort, and minimises costly component replacement
Procedure:
Clamp the adjustable jig around the steering knuckle
Drill a precise centring hole through the corroded bolt
Drill out the bolt core using guided alignment
Use a vibration gun to release and remove remaining bolt segments
Clean out the bore using included cleaning bushes to remove corrosion and debris
Fit new bolt into the restored clamping point
