Stabilised… but noisy

It took two days (well two mornings) to try and remove a bolt off my car’s chasis.

We (my brother and I) only managed to get the nut off the bolt. The bolt would not budge despite putting enormous pressure on it using a clamp, two bodies for brute force, an air compressor attached to a socket set, and a mini sledge hammer.

Iron Oxide won on those two days.

Today, Iron Oxide lost to a cutting disc. Cut the bolt into pieces and hammered out. New panhard rod attached. 5 minutes it took.

Took it for a spin, and then the exhaust blew after a few minutes. Argh! There’s a hole in the silencer box.
