PeteH Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi. Herald 13/60 repairs. Got to the point this afternoon, where I had the Mount bolts each side removed, However the Body will only lift a few Millimetres, So I have been looking here for answers. What I think is happening is there must be at least 2 more Bolted joins either In the Floor pan or the boot. I have seen here that the GT6? has bolts at the top of the Rear axle / spring "Hump" and there are two bolts under the rubber bungs in the boot?. Are there any other Bolts?. Thanks Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahebron Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Have you removed these Two at the rear of the out riggers under the boot Two on the diff hump And the ones down the side plus the screws across the bulkhead joint. Maybe a few welds and screws that previous owners have added. And dont forget the handbrake cable. Plus a few I might have forgotten Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteH Posted January 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 OK 2 at the top of diff Hump, I did suspect where body securing. The outrigger ends under the boot dont exist!. (part of the reason why I want he Rear tub off!) The Join under the seats have been removed for some repair sections to be inserted, and a new floor pan. Thanks for that, I will have a look again later. At this point I am not taking the front tub off (Yet). Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 To stop the two tubs closing up I hid two countersunk screws under the tread plates but guess if fitted you have removed these and and the sills pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Flinn Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Don't forget the two Eye Bolts for the inner Seat Belts on the Transmission tunnel, these go through the floor into threaded brackets welded to the Chassis Main Rails?

PeteH Posted January 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 HI Thanks all. Rear tub now lifted clear, (well by 4inches!). Just waiting for a couple of Buddies (Drinking Variety!) to give me a lift off so I can get at a few dodgy spots on both the Chassis and tub. Leaving the front (tub) in place for the time being, Storage space is now at a premium even in a double width garage!. Cheers. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 we tipped the tub up on rubber anti slip mats under the overriders and supported the lifted tub with timber stays to prop it up takes up less room and easy to work on pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
