    Just spent the past 2.5hrs undoing and freeing up one front radius arm bolt, one more to go tomorrow. Seriously thinking about taking up stamp collecting as a hobby instead!

    I’ve had two bulkheads galvanized so far and had no issues, if they do decide to drill a hole I can always fill it in with lead solder before painting, I’ve used this method on galvanized front bumpers to fill in the end cap holes. Beauty with...

    Have you put a drill/drain hole on the door pillars of the bulkhead? They classed mine as a sealed tube & drilled a hole in each side Stuff always look good when re galved

    Thats why we went out on classic car tours. Recovery company organised & re patriate your car if broke(happened twice to 1 car) If your motor is in good condition just pack a good tool kit to fix the basics.recovery company can do the rest.

    Cut it off and bash the new one in and weld it on, if you have the one with the reduced tube size. I would support the tub with a jack and piece of wood when removing the bolts. Don't weld galvanised metal as its bad for you.

    Have you measure the gap(door opening) On both sides of the motor? Have you measured the doors? This will tell how much you need to make the drivers side larger
