raeross Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I am trying to remove the rear vision flaps on my 1954 Daimler Ferret Mk1, so I can get into the nooks and crannies and clean and paint the inside.I have three of the four pins out; however I am having trouble freeing up the upper outside pin. I have tried WD-40, and tapping it with a hammer; however, it doe not seem to want to budge.I want to see if anyone happens to know a trick to removing this that I may not know about before I try the rougher methods of; heat the hinge with a torch, or grinding the ends off and driving it out. I would rather not have to track down, or make, a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirhc Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 WD40 is a waste of time, you need this stuff: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F172985432834 Some heat won’t hurt either.

Tony B Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I was recently recommended a home made brew of 50/50 parrafin and ATF. Works a teat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
