The first two of six!

So I started the strip down of the coxa joint to replace the broken axles with the new stub and bearing design. This process will take two to three weeks due to the fact that I only have two engine hoists so we can only remove two legs at a time. Once the legs are suspended on the cranes, the coxa's are disassembled and the top and bottom plates are sent to D&T precision to have the bearings housings fitted.
