Good idea. Mudski has one of them rings I'll get one welded on at some stage.
The plug wasn't damaged as such as nothing under this car ever copped a hit. It was the salt water dipping, dunking the trailer what caused these dramas... Remember my tow bar tongue? Same thing. I'm only guessing the rest will be the same.

Next oil change , whats the condition inside the chassis??
Id be spraying a shite load of lanotec or fish oil ,
again so never seize might be the go, awesome product imo

Done that after I got the car as well as the whole bottom got resprayed in POR15. Will make it an annual thing to spray the inside of chassis as best as I can until lanotec is pouring out.

Ran the front extended diff breather earlier. Also went around the cracked the rest of the filler and drain plugs. All easy thankfully.
While under the bonnet found a little hidden surprise which I didn't know JPC fitted when car was tuned.
Then the garage creeper gave way on me and that was the end of that ...
