Ah so
I have the hinge
means "I have
a hinge that need lengthened and messed with"
Get on the general chat here and on BY and wherever else and ask "anyone in
wherever county you're in prepared to weld my hinge for some beers/cash pretty please?"
You'll be fine.

I understand some cutting and welding has to be done to the van ie changeing the track length etc so as Im about as useful with a welder as my cat is I cant do it! HELP HELP HELP!
