Default Mixed up threads

Hi. Might just be a Halloween thing But I just looked at a thread that had the blue arrow that says I posted in it when I know I didn't ( https://www.fordforums.com.au/vbport...php?t=11502262 ) and found it had 3 posts ( a thread all on its own) about early falcon or cortina hubcaps. Cheers MD

You had me scratching my head at that one, I saw the original post (posted in two areas, I thought) then it was merged with the engine breaking thread. Not sure what happened there…

Someone has accidently merged three threads together instead of just merging the two breaking in a motor threads.

If I knew what and where the original title was I would fix it. I can't just simply reverse the merging.

Maybe Russ can do something about it. I'll send him a quick PM.

I thought I was going to read a thread about someone mixing their imperial nuts with their metric bolts or visa versa.

Don't know if it's related but there was a post regarding AU Fairlane rebuild advice that seems to lost all it's post.

Surta like that one time some un-named person may or may not have snapped 3 sockets and 2 spanner before realising diff ' ring gear to centre ' bolts are " left hand tread" apposed to EVERY other bolt being "right hand tread' . . . ( Righty tighty , lefty loosey).




Not to mention how same said person removed the ' spider gears' to weld them . . .
