Nice job Freddy.

When you're finished with that one, Smoken has one for you to tidy up. He just has to lift the other ~~wreck~~ Moke off it

what was involved with removing the seat cross member fred?

moemoke · « **Reply #25 on:** January 22, 2011, 09:25:07 PM »

Struth Fred you have been busy, it wasn't like that when I was there this arvo

The moke has some rather nasty rust in the tunnel underneath the seat crossmember
so thats why Fred's removed it

Did you drill out the spot welds?

Terry · « **Reply #26 on:** January 22, 2011, 10:07:41 PM »

Hi,

If the cross member has the body id on it, as many mid 70's do, then you need to have a VASS inspection because it has been removed. Learn't that one the other day from my Mr VASS.

Fred flinstone · « **Reply #28 on:** January 22, 2011, 11:35:22 PM »

Drilled all the spot welds to take the cross member out to give me better acces to fix the rust hole under cross member .
