Default Bye Bye Old Mountings.

Next visit to the repeatedly stifling cave involved kneeling pad, hacksaw, angle grinder, both cutting and grinding discs, and a flapwheel. Cutting one end of the engine mountings from the frame, and using work hardening to break off the other end, resulted in unsightly holes in the frame as the welds proved much stronger than TDW's tubes. Patching will be required.



The gearbox mounting offered little resistance and was off in no time.



I then ground and flapped off the worst of the jagged stubs and called it a day.

Regards, Mick
