Rear ARB bushes replacement Porsche 996

As well as replacing the shock absorbers on my Porsche 911 I also wanted to fit new bushes to the anti roll bars front and rear. 
For the rear ARB three of the four bolts came out without too much problem but the last one snapped as being undone with the remainder left in the subframe.
I tried various ways to remove it with heat and managed to break 2 drill bits so decided to go to a specialist engineering company to get it removed without damaging the subframe.

After leaving the car with them for an hour I returned and the bolt was out! They also cleaned up the threads for the 3 other bolts.

Finally they sandblasted the ARB carriers which brought them up looking like new.

Once home I got cracking with fitting the ARB back to the car and connecting the drop links up.
