Your tool box is probably full of what I'd call 'special' tools .

For us mere mortals, a 'one-off use' tool like that becomes 'special'. Saying that I did make up the cut-away socket for the paralever locking nut, but I have to beg for time on a mates miller for things like that.

Apparently Amanda Holden keeps a box of 'special tools' under her bed...

Excellent reply Mac, I'll get on the case and post up how I get on.
unfortunately it would be around about a 1400 mile return trip for me !

Cheers.

you have a GS; 1400 miles is an easy days ride!

Anyway, looks like Mike is too busy at the moment as I've tried 3 forms of contact with no reply! Anyone else to recommend?

So what's your plan Mike? You gonna weld that tandem onto the rear sub frame after all?

Looking like I'm sorted so the tandem is saved!
