Your at the Fox and Goose, if you want a helping hand there to do them, more than willing to help, unless they want doing before, or if you want to have a relaxing time and not get your hands dirty.

Cheers chap will keep you posted on doing them at F&G. Tools will be required. My 46mm combi spanner wouldn't shift the nut.

gonna need a bigger spanner (from jaws) 46mm 3/4 drive socket and bar, and scaffold pole, dependent on lenghth not sure how many white knuckles yours needs to be tightened too, 258 or 369 lbs ft. I remember seeing on a post on this site a 46mm ring for the castleated nut which would fit into a bar, did a quick search but no luck. Might be able to get hold of a 46mm 3/4 socket and bare + pole, will know by Saturday.

Looks like there will be enough tools to do the job, I will bring along some gaffer tape in case we can't find 2 fat blokes, we can tape 2 thin ones together,or 3 if need be. I will bring an old washing up bowl and some hand cleaner, and a lot of paper towels for drying hands or cleaning the parts, any thing else needed, put a list up pepperami
