viking Posted September 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 so i was all set to spend the evening in the garage putting my rear seats back together and in place, but as usual things didnt quite go to plan, picked seats up after work, came up well even thought they wasn't that bad to start with, only charged me £20 .

viking Posted September 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 so here is where the problem started, and after trying to sort it out after half an hour id ran out of ideas and it had ****** me off a little so i came back inside and gave in till tomorrow found all the fixing that fix to the bottom seats and to the wheel arch, found the bottom bit that lets the seat swing up and down, but as usual in my moment of madness where i gathered all manner of things up at took them to be galvinised, and not knowing the process of galvanising there no longer able to swing as they should, as my roof vents there ******* stuck fast so i tried to free them and the bolt snapped which wasnt a bad thing really, then it looked like it had a couple of washers on, so i thought if i can get them off everything will be ok ish. tried to bang them off with a screwdriver and hammer, no luck, so put the thing in the vice, no luck, heated them up, no luck, then i looked at the rest to see what they were like, different all together is what they were like looking at them i thing i should be able to either heat them up and work them free, or drill them out and use some kind of nut and bolt and loc tight it on to where it needs to be to allow it to swing free, so will have to try all that tomorrow and the weekend, its all good fun .

ditchman Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) the trick is to not rush it....heat the area up slowly........if you do it carefully ...not rushed it wont destroy the galvanising.....
