All fitted in an hour or so with nothing more than a very dirty face. Why have I decided to do all these jobs under the truck when it's covered in filth.

Engine seems a little more lively now so money well spent I think. :)

So you've got all bar one of the 10mm bolts out? Best suggestion would be try and hammer a smaller ring spanner on then shock it loose with a hammer. Or try mole grips on it.

Yeah got 2 of the 3 cracked but for some reason the last will not go, have tried to hamer on a socket but not much room in there, mole grips just seem to slip off as its now fully round:mad::mad::mad:

Grinder out in sat I think think, new screws. and get the job done, going to flush the system, and new coolant at the same time as well.

Thanks for your help with ideas Chris and Geoff,

Stu you can get a socket to get that bolt out it's similar to the ones we were talking about on ebay, but as you turn it cuts into the bolt and grips i think snapon tools do one about £20 .Sure someone on here will have details.

Have you got a Landy or a 4x4, bring it to Bures Pit on the 14th Nov, we will be there, without seeing and getting to know someone I am afraid, I would not let a stranger play in my Baby, espcialy on the rough, can quickly do a lot of damage.

Our group has only got Disco's and a 90, but get to know the guy's and girl's on the site and you may well bag your self a ride.
 
I presume you have a landy and want to try a bit of laning. Where are you in Essex?

Today has been cancelled due to most people not being able to make it, but guy is coming round mine for a cuppa and maybe some work on the landy.

Your welcome over to meet us if you like. If you want you can pm me your number and I will text you my address.

Guy is getting here about midday.

Thats a shame, I would have poped over to see, work, and drink tea, I could of brought some cakes....

But I am seeing the kids this afternoon, Edward would of loved it cakes and landys, but dont think the 3 girls would enjoy the dirt and landys.
 
I have an 8 year old daughter who would love to have some friends over.

Thanks for the offer Stu. I can get to bures ok, just can't warrrant the £30 this month to the credit controller. :)
