Am I correct to assume that you replaced all the studs?
Thanks!

Brian gives the dimensions in the Vid - but the Koken did not work. Not enough meat on it to turn down. Had a no-name brand.
There are a few skills in here not apparent in the Vid.
For instance, I would be keen to know how he welded the socket on to the bolt - which really had to be dead true to the bolt. Any out of round = loss in the socket when skimming to diameter. Since there is so little to play with, I am guessing he somehow used the lathe to get it true for welding.
Would be keen to know. Otherwise you are going to end up wasting sockets. Once made - another useful tool in the box.
