If it's any consolation Stoney I snapped a pinch bolt in my Fiesta's front hub last night and if I can't get it sorted tomorrow then I need to find another way to get to JAE!

Mikey is200/s13 go get a grinder and square off the head get the mole grips back on it

Mikey. I love you. If we ever meet I will buy you a pint! Also thanks to everyone for their suggestion on this tread, my supercharger thread, and facebook!

I don't know why I, or anyone else, did not think of this earlier. I managed to borrow an angle grinder, but it was the size of a small child and had an enormous disk designed to cut cement with steel reinforcement! Didn't want to use it unless I had to, but I was gonna get that cradle out if I destroyed half the donor car doing it! In the end it took 10mins with a file then trusty mole grips, and it came out easy enough!

The cradle is out, and painted along with charger, FMIC and pipes, and will be fitted at the weekend. I am very relieved!

"Life's goal is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body. But, rather to skid in sideways........
totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"
