![]() Hi Stot,
![]() I hear you was down my neck of the woods Saturday. If I had known I could have shown you round my car and had a chat. The car was in the workshop where you picked up your stuff from and I was working on it upto about 4o'clock so must have just missed you... ![]()

![]() Hi Johno,
I missed that bodywork by minutes unfortunately so it wasn't me if that's what you meant? I was at home helping Phil @ Talon load my MX5 shell onto the back of his truck. ![]() Never seen another man make my wife so happy.... ![]() Cheers Stot

![]() a wee update. I needed to strip the rear uprights completely and I had a seized bolt stuck in one of them. I had cut the bolt to remove the upright from the wishbone.
I spent an age trying to get the damn circlip out of the upright and in the end took an old set of vice grips and welded them to the circlip! ![]() ![]() Came out in seconds and i pressed the bearings out with a 12 ton press. ![]() ![]() Ready for final blasting an painting.

![]() Next up the seized bolt.
![]() I center drilled it on the mill and then used a dead center in the press to free it up and a long socket to push it through. ![]() ![]() ![]() It went with a bang.

![]() They come out a lot easier if you can spin the bolts in the uprights with an impact gun, soak over night with oil, then they come out with a drift and a big Ammer!
