Hi all,
Have got two snapped exhaust studs in my TD42 and need thread repair mob to come and fix it up, do you know of anyone who does this that services the north shore?
By the way, no it wasn't me that snapped them, just old age and fatigue i guess.
Thanks for any help!
Cheers, Beretts

Thanks for the help MART, Could do but need a 90 degree drill which I don't have, and would rather pay the $$ to someone who knows what they're doing and get them both out without any hassles and cleanly. I'll ring a few people I know around the place on Monday and see what I can find if nothing pops up on here.

dont try it ur self especially if ya havent done it before and especially with exhaust studs, i used to go out on site and do repairs like these and sum were a real pita, but it was made easier with a spark eroder

, also ring around sum of the machine/engineering shops most of the time they do this as a side line.
