200tdi inner sills and the MoT

<< < (3/3)

xmob:
I've got the dance part sussed.  My problem with upside down welding is that I always seem to have difficulty making the bead defy gravity.   :?

Moot point at the minute.  I'm considering torching the frigging thing!!!  Just rebuilt the hand brake.  Backplate off.  Wire brushed.  Expander and adjuster degreased and rebuilt.  New shoes.  New return springs.  Now the b'stard thing won't release properly.  Too much slack in the cable and too much rust on the threads to adjust!!!!    :evil:  :evil:  :evil:

All good fun, got to take the console out the motor on the heater has packed up, alright at the moment, but could be interesting this winter, wonder if i could fit internal wipers for the condensation :lol:

xmob:
Been there, done that.  Never again!

HI

LOOKED AT WORK TODAY IN THE TESTER HAND BOOK AND THE SILLS ARE NOT A PART OF THE STRUCTURAL OF THE VEHICLE. THE FUNNY PART IS THAT YOU ARE ALSO ALLOWED ONE  OUTER RIGGER ON ONE SIDE TO BE PARTED FROM THE CHASSIS AS LONG AS THE MAIN CHASSIS IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND NOT HOLED.

                                                  GOOD LUCK

Necessity being the mother and all that I've discovered I can weld left handed behind a wheel arch using a mirror!

As the the mig-man's dance!  I have a friend who works 'in the trade' and he managed to almost burn his crackers off when a large peice of spatter burned through his jeans, pants etc, ran round his crotch and left just under his buttock.  Couldn't wear pants for weeks :shock:

And for the ears. I find neglecting your personal hygene for a few days helps protect the skin.  Funny sound like frying though.
