Saves the hassle and then you've got it for any future jobs, and you're kinda failing as a 306 owner without oneI did consider just buying one for future use, but I'm clearing out the garage as we're having it converted, so I'm not going to have the room any more for power tools. Not to mention my driveway is on a slope so I wouldn't be able to jack up the car there to get at it and use power from the house. I would have just removed the strut and fitted the GTi suspension for lows and to make things easier, but the one on the ARB is the same.
