Nut and bolt wont work without getting the captive nut due to the spacing to the axle casing,

I think i've elongated the hole on the panhard mount which wont help matters

May be a case of cut the hole mount off and fab a new one

Yup you don't won't to snap a tap in the hole as they are made of very hard metal and would be a nightmare to try and drill out! Where abouts do you live? Is it driveable at all. I have a welder a day some steel kicking around if I can help mate.

I'm from skelton, just on outskirts of teesside before you hit ny moors,


I've drove it to the garage in boro to have my new tyres fitted, but anything over 20 it shakes itself to bits?

If your local to boro i'd love to take you up on that offer?

I am up near Consett Mike I was hoping you would be closer :( that's nearly 2 hours from here! I was hoping it would be drivable as the plan is to come up this way on Sat. You could have come up early and we could have tried to sort it. I don't suppose Smoggy could sort it for you?

Which mount is it? Front or back left or right and do you have standard pan arms?
