Time to say goodbye?

Unfortunately I have very few 12 sided sockets. I tried it with a 6 sided one to no avail. Ordered an extractor which should be here on Friday.

Started my repair on the body mount today, only to realise that the remaining metal was paper thin. In the end I encapsulated the mount in 4mm sheet, that should do the trick.

Finally a bit of good news from Amayama. All the inserts have been delivered to their warehouse and they went in the post today. Unfortunately, it takes around 7 days to get here and then I am on holiday. At least when i come back I have all the parts to fix the gearbox.

Hopefully get the sill repaired before we go on holiday but no guarantees. Most of the metal is cut and bend, just need to start welding now.
