Saturday is the only day I can do

[fudge]

saturday is good for me
and i was thinking of the sorta same thing as i have on the front of mine stretch
since you will be removing the bumper to lift that.

ohh and is it an idea to look at doing the lwb light convershion on it?

ohh p.s. where i am at the mo is 35 degrees C

[fogman]

fudge go enjoy your honeymoon will ya funny enough its raining here, if i get stuck up the lane can you come back & pull me out

if im not labouring that weekend ill pop down for some bacon taste testing i mean to help out of course

[Gem]

think stretch best build the BBQ we've had for years to give me more room for cooking ! Thanks everyone .

[stretch]

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 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.

[RatCav]

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.

[stretch]

Will do, cheers mate

[RatCav]

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

[stretch]

Yeah reckon we could ill dig out some bolts.

[Dannyboy]

Thats the way to do it chaps , M10x30/40mm i think i used on the coiler or are they M8???????? i forget, lwb lights are the way forward pal

[stretch]

no worries Rob let me know so I can buy extra bacon and tea

[MrPete]

I like the way I'm involved already via someone who is meant to be on honeymoon!
I should be around to help out as and where I can, and my first spanner party woo!

[fudge]

and didnt you want thoes lovely stainless bullbars put on yours

[MrPete]

I sure do, me car looks naked without bullbars
Hope you had a good time btw, fudge!

[Gem]

i still havent found any

[fogman]

stainless ones or just bullbars in general ?

[Gem]

i dont really mind, not bothered about stainless steel tbh as going for a more black moody look rather then shiny bits .

[bobbinsjob]

[stretch]
