Region: East Anglia

Did a bit of work on Tara today wench wanted the rear bumper off to tidy them up and in the process I managed to snap a bolt had to be the awkward one at the back :roll: so if anyone has any ideas on how to sort this out let me know, i've tried grips etc, no room to get a drill in. It goes through the tow bar as well so ideally would like it fixed/replaced some how as intent to tow with her. Anyone got a stud extractor? or I guess we could weld onto it.

also managed to break the 10mm bolts of the light holders so looking for a pair of these as well but i'll post in the wanted section.

Keep soaking it in WD40 until we get there. Then we will get some heat on it or weld a nut to the stud and get it off.

As for the light holders how do they mount. Can we just drill out the old ones and bolt right through.
