Spooner Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Whilst fitting a steering guard yesterday on my TD5 90 I managed to shear off the head of the bolt in the picture below - I tried to extract the remains but before getting too heavy handed I wanted to know if it threaded all the way through (I don't think it is...) or not. Also it appeared to have a couple of spot welds on it but can't be sure. Can anyone tell me please? cheers Gavin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverik Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 hmmm picture isn't there... ok it is now. On my 90, thats just a bolt that goes straight through into the chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 bolt you've broke is item 20 & the arm is item 19, on page 526 looks like you'll need to remove the arm to extract the remains of the broken bolt, it's not threaded all the way along the shank.

The bolt goes all the way through to the other side of the chassis rail and I have a nut on there, so hopefully I'll be able to shift it. ...and can get a new one from - http://www.lrseries.com/shop/product/listing/314/253952-BOLT-1-2-UNF-X-6-1-2.html but think I'll pop down to my local merchants on Monday..
