Snapped bolt in swivel housing...

<< < (2/3) > >>

Eightpot:
I'd drill it out and re-tap - if it didn't work out too well I'd either drill a bigger hole and use a larger tap - or even drill another hole slightly to the side through the retainer and swivel, I reckon it will still seal just as well.

Range Rover Blues:
Or plan B, find a good S/H swivel.  Which side is it?

Mark_Solesbury:
Passenger Side.....

Know anywhere?

Or heli-coil it  :wink: if needed. Little expensive for one off tho'

Mark_Solesbury:
managed to blag a pillar drill for 10 mins, so i drilled it out and tapped it.

Just need some light now to put it back together again :)
