Excellent write-up Ron.

Hey Ron

That don't looks much better now, I recently had to do all that with mine but after it being welded by someone first so you should be glad you got to it before it got that bad.

Re your nuts and bolts, might be worth looking at a rivet nut gun, I got one for fixing the bumper back on after a body lift, and it might save you some fiddly tapping of threads. Think it was about 15 quid

Nice one! I've just taken a look at one of those rivet nut guns, it does look like it would be a lot easier than trying to tap a new thread upside down under the car.

Rivnuts?

...A huge pia when they wear; break or strip the thread. We used to use them on aircraft. Thank goodness Airbus never liked them :lol:
