I just wanted to make sure I hadn’t missed anything bud.

I have hit it with penetrating oil and will get some heat / press action on the go.

Cheers for shouting up bud.

Richie, are you going to weld it up and machine a new thread on it? It is a shame the seal track is part of the casting. If it is a mess, maybe you machine it off and make a press fit seal track to go on the stubb axle?

Default The Dilemma

I know you have already stuffed the thread...... but quite often I have encountered this dilemma about whether you can remove the cotter pin and try and "save" everything or sacrifice the nut , nip bot sides with the gas , and crack off with the cold chisel, saves a lot of grief, Cheers.
