Default 007 ec250 exhaust pipe fixing bracket problem.
The rivnut was spinning in its hole so I had to fabricate a solution. I could not get my rivnut tool anywhere near the hole.. God knows how it was originally put in? Maybe just pressed in as it was not deformed as they should be... Anyway....
I welded a small nut onto a washer and welded the washer to the frame. Seems to work fine..
This was the cause of a lot of annoying rattles..
Ps my welding is shockingly poor...

I believe you can get "90 degree" rivnut tools... mine is the "in line" version so no way I could access the hole...

It's too bad that the article he marked is a vise!
