LOL.! I knew he was close. But how long does it take to drill 4 holes in two lengths of flat bar? James will have to walk quite briskly! 🤣 |

David Smith's anchor bar is so elegantly simple it would take a lot less time to fabricate one than going to collect Richard's. And with the price of fuel even a short trip is going to cost more! |

Ok think I get! Thanks for your help |

I have done it with the diff in the car, but as David said, it's much easier out. |

I shaped up a large piece of flat steel to fit around the pinion nut so I can fit a couple of bolts into the flange - same basically as David's but mine is one piece. |
Martin | 28 June 2022 |
I did a similar arrangement to Davids. Before you loosen the nut mark the nut orientation so that you get it back to the same torque setting. Helps keep everything aligned internally. |

I knocked this up using 1/4 x 1 inch mild steel bar. Take the diff out, attach the steady bar to 2 opposing holes in the flange. Place on the floor and then use a socket and as long a breaker bar as you can find. Easy-peasy. |

Anam, thanks. Close up you can see filler outline on the bonnet through the celly, as I rushed it, but it will do for now. |
