I'm so glad they made things easy for me..looks like I'm gunna have to shell out the BIG bucks and go down to Supercrap and buy a cold chisel..hopefully my grinder doesn't get too upset LOL
Hang on Tim, are actually telling a male NOT to buy a tool that he may not need????
Have a funny feeling that by the time I actually get the project on the road we'd of run of of fossil fuels lol
Youll be right, just do a bit at a time,youll get there
I spend probably over 2 years doin my ute here and there, now just as it nears completion (its driveable none the less) it has to go to someone else
But as i bleed nissan blood,im starting another project , a shorty,not for road use and wont take 2 years, givin myself a month or so,just getting the parts organised,thats a rumage threw the parts shed
Yeah I know that, actually don't mind how long it takes as do have a ball playing with hammers, grinders etc.
Well, every 2nd week I have a 3 day w/end and that's when I play in the man-cave with my girls.
Girls bit hard this w/end!!
Crowned myself on the red body's roof so friggen took the grinder to it to give me more head room, now only crown myself on the garage roof LOL.
Took 3 LONG days to undo ONE friggen body-chassis bolt (one of the rear ones), must of used at least a can of WD40, 2 packs of band-aids and only have a lil bit of skin left on the knuckles.
I'm going to hold a "working bee" around at my home with beer and bbq (after the job is done) of removing the red body and sending that to the scrapman, removing the silver body and off to a panelbeater to work his magic.
Hopefully by the time of the bbq/beer/bee I'd sold the SD33T and it's running gear so when the red body goes to the scrapman, can add the chassis of the silver one.
Questions time for the gurus (Finley, Mad, Tank)
How do you seperate the fuel filler pipe from the body so that when I raise the body it doesn't try to follow it?
There are two bolts (on top) that attach a bracket (that the alternator bracket is attached to) to the engine. How the hell do you undo them?? I am strong, but damn, even WD40, X-tire iron for added leverage, banging it with a small hammer and no movement.
The MQ has a single rear seat that tips forward, where's the MK has a bench seat that folds forward. The single seat set up clips into a raised bracket on the wheel well which is not on the MK, is that bracket just spot welded into place and would it be just a case of drilling out the spot welds, or will it be better to cut the whole thing out and weld it on the MK wheel well?
Thats it for now LOL

latch for the tip forward rear seat, as you can see on a raised mount on the wheel well..
