Trailing Arm

[Jez Morton]

Anyone nearby got a spare nearside sierra rear trailing arm.

Had a nightmare with the hub bolts, to cut a long story short theres half a tap broke off in one the hub bolt threaded holes and I cant see anyway to get it out.

 

Cheers Jez

Hi Jez,

Depending how the tap has broken you should be able to break it up and remove with a hammer and chisel or punch, It may take a bit of time but worth the effort then carefully drill and re-tap if possible or drill out and maybe put a nut on the back.

Hi Martin I did find a way to get it out, I used a Waltons broken tap extactor. It was jammed because it was in a number of pieces so they locked each other when you tried to turn it.

 

So thankfully trailing arm no longer required, cars all ready for Stoneleigh.
