jammy git by dickycaz on Tue Apr 14, 2009 3:04 pm
after reading all the horror story's of snapped bolts when doing body lifts i was not looking forward to doing mine,but needs must so i set off just having a look as i had no intention of taking them out just now until i had all the bits together to finish it .
well i hunted for my wd40 so i can give them all a good soaking but to no avail as my eldest son had used it all on his push bikes. well i will just give them a turn just to see how hard this was going to be ............... and every one came out without any problems at all well i say all i think i am right in saying that there is 12 bolts 6 captive and six nut and bolt if so then i am a jammy git . :lol: :lol: :lol:

It is the fear of snapped bolts that has so far kept this job off the radar for me , despite it being one of the jobs I would most like to do , so far not one single job has gone smoothly on the frontera :lol:

Today I was surprised as all mine played ball. One captive fought and I thought it would pop, but it came out whole. I did snap a front one, but hey it beat undoing it. Just a royal pain getting all the pucks in, rain stopped play for today.

Looks like a good bolt day for Foggers :dance:
