You seem to have the right gear with the hydraulic ram etc.  Keep us =
informed.

Your comment on a rain free milder climate is interesting.   The major =
portion of Australia lies in the temperate latitudes and yet in most of =
the country we are in a drought - the Sydney Water Supply is down to =
41.2% a level it hasn't had since the major dam "Warragamba" was built =
in the 1960's.  It looks like the new water use restrictions will become =
permanent.

Will keep an eye (or two) on your project.

Cheers
Diana

Hi Diana,

the first step towards keeping the existing cross member is done...

It took a little less than an hour, of which at least a quarter was =
spent to set it all up. I really could do with a larger garage or a rain =
free, mild climate!

A few cracks appeared and they seem to have been there for a long time. =
I cut them out a bit to make welding easier, but even so it will still =
require some fettling to be done.

Next will come the connecting tubes for the tow bar.

I keep you updated. The potential decision to go on is helped by the =
shipping cost for a new cross member.... 95 GBP...

Cheers, Ulrico
