Hi Willie, it's a mount for the hydraulic motor/gear that drives the rotate on one of our grapples. Bolt holes are shot. There's structure above it that prevents me from drilling straight on.

I spent the afternoon with an air arc and prised the little bastage out of there. It's currently on the drill press.


All downhill from here....
