the way ive always done it is to take a bolster chisel and hack off most of the wing ( on the upright from the drip rail) then when its off and out of the way take an angle grinder and grind the spotwelds where they attach to the driprail, if you use a pair of pincers (like what carpenters use) you can use these to roll the remainder of the wing back when you have ground the spotwelds, this leaves the driprail totally intact ready for you to fit your new wing!, but remember if using a grinder COVER THE WINDSCREEN!!!!! if you dont you will burn it and get lumps of metal melted into it not that ive ever done that hahaha, that goes for welding it in again aswell if you go down that route. there may also be a couple of 10mm bolts down the A post not sure been ages since i took a wing off a cappa lol.

 

hope this helps Jason.

wobbly you mupet strange that we were talking about replacing with f/g the other day as well do both sides mate leave bonnet on and offer the wing into place mark where it goes and then fix in to place

i cant believe you lumped it

bloody sods bloody law!

and are the remainder of the welds down on the front of the sill kinda area??

how do you remove capper wings?

 

Have you tried rubbing it on a taxi?

 

Shit luck mate - sorry to take the p!ss - I'm sure you'll manage, it's not getting them off its getting the new ones to fit nicely with tidy gaps thats more tricky. As said, just take your time, you've got to live with looking at it for a long time!

 

 

 

Unless another cabbie tries to ram you!
