Hi All,
Well after the second meeting of the Cambs 'n' Bedfordshire list meet.
(It was great to meet Mike Mawson and Richard Gosling and there
respective steads!) I decided to strip down the front suspension.
1 1/2 days, 4 frozen bolts (3 wishbone bolts and 1 trunnion), one oval
hole, one bit of metal fatigue and a skinned knuckle.
The question is, what sort of anti-sieze compund should a I use to sto
this from happening again..
Cheers
Tim
BTW An angle grinder is a great way of removing a frozen trunion!!
