The best blade we found for the job was an abrasive blade with a diamond grit edge, no teeth. Made by Lennox if I remember correctly. Not cheap though

Poor access caused by the inner wings means you'll only be using the tip of the blade. We gradually shortened our blade by removing the tip to make sure we got the most out of it.
Still, one down and three to go, eh Bryan

Burn/melt all rubbers with an accetylene torch , takes seconds.

That's what I did.

The problem here is that the inner sleeves are rusted to the adjuster bolt. Melting the rubber insert just means it slops around while you're trying to cut it, and everything is covered in goop to make life harder.

Three bolts down one to go. On the drivers side i've found a nice hole in the top of the chassis and onto the rear mount (what a heap of Bananarama!)

.
On the passenger side one bolt just came out using spanners,surely that can't be right

but the other one is going to need cutting out.After that i just need my Bananarama! from Japan

Hey, if i was'nt doing this what else would i be doin?
