had to remove a tow frame and had to cut the bolts. It left the bolt seized in the chassis tube.... was a bugger to get out :eek:

Oh god, I got a welding scar from one of those jobs, ended up slicing through the tube to get the bolt out and used a solid copper earthing spike in the tube so I could weld it back up, fitted my jate rings with a good dollop of copper slip but think I should have countersunk them for O rings and put grease nipples on them so they could be greased and kept free, they are in "that" place where they get all the muck and spray off the roads.
 
Gottitoff......yayyy !!!!!

Big bro brought his flamey gun and managed to loosen it. Took some effort though. It didn’t want to come off!!
