Hopefully you’ll get sorted. I cringe when I hear weld, had this done and it damaged the finish on the alloy

I know it will damage it but it’s got to come off. It’s cheaper to refurbish 1 rather than all 4. Fingers crossed he is happy to drill.

Still annoys me to this day, as you said it’s cheaper to refurb 1 but being a tight northerner it bugged me even more having to pay for that

They arrived today. See if I can get them off later. 🤞I can only get 3 off as we mullered the rear one. Image

Nice one!
I bet it was a proper pig of a job what with how tight the damn thing was on.

Apparently not. Took the guy 15mins using a dynomec tool. I recon I loosen it for him.

Dropped it off at 830. They called me at 915 saying it’s done. I asked what tool he used. Showed me this dynomec tool. Just happy.

I'm surprised with how tight it was but the Dynomec kit is a good tool.

Me to. Really surprised but frankly I got to the point I just didn’t care. I wanted them off. Glad we didn’t have to weld. Alloys just need a little tidy up. But well happy.
