Turned out some scumbag damaged both the passenger side front and rear of the car, obviously when they were reversing out of the car-park, they hit my wife's car. Now its going to cost us another $500.00 excess in insurance costs to have $1,700.00 worth of damaged fixed. PS, there is only one way to treat parasites on the arse of society. .50cal Regards, Paul

You need to be in the direction of a certain light standing at a particular angle. LOL.

Removing spring U bolts for a quick bellows fit before a shooting trip on Friday. All threads stretched resulting in all U bolts buggered. Public holiday yesterday, short on time to find and replace in time.......

may pay to keep some as spares for the future,
How old are "u" bolts

U bolts are less than two years old. I’m certainly not the harshest bloke with my forby, but we do go to out of the way places. I think most threads under this stress will stretch, It just ends up cross threading the bolts. The nuts were loosened until they seized, then I had to cut the bolts to remove. Normally not a problem, I am just time constrained!!!
Spare U bolts (new, not these ones) good idea though!

If going off the beaten track I'd hate to be stuck just because I never had a spare.
Most 4x4 shops throw out old "U" bolts , check pic of my vice lol
Don't leave home without one eh.
Would think not a huge expense

Nice. Had to do “Black-smithing” as part of my apprenticeship (no, I’m not old?), love the anvil. U bolts about $15 each, little more if you have to get them made. I’ll add one to my kit.

cool,,,,, don't have to be old to like making things,
Anvil comes in very handy
