Hi, I'm trying to get a steering wheel cover for my T25 (the wheel is 45cm or 17.7inches). I tried searching the net for lorry sites and the like but have had little success. Any ideas (other than make one, get one done by an upholsterer, or use bike tape which are my possible plans if I fail to fi...

Thanks for all your comments.. Decided to keep the roof as it is and maybe sell the van at a later date and look for a pop top model.

Thanks Fritz..

Has anyone replaced a high top with a pop top?
Thinking about ripping off the high top on my Autohomes Kameo
and fitting a Westy style pop top,
Is it possible or is it a nightmare and should i not even go there.
Thanks

Just about to order the caravanstore but then I noticed the Fiamma F35 which is a similar weight to the caravan store but packs into a cassette like the F45. However it may not have rafters and may need tensioning ropes. Any comments? Deke. Ive got the F35 Pro fitted to my High top, Easy to put up,...

I had this problem on and off and ended up replacing one offending hyd follower, still have another one rap away now and again if the vans been standing for more than 4 or 5 days but since ive been using a 20/50 grade oil the problem isnt as bad and the follower soon pumps back up after a few miles....

thanks simon easy peasy. :D what about front ? cheers gally You will need to jack up your van and remove the wheel unless you want to make a fairly easy job more difficult.. Make sure you jack the van high enough to be able to remove the shock abs down through the bottom wishbone and remember you m...

Once youve bled the system fully try using Wynns Rad seal, it really does work but cant guarantee how long for, depends on the size of your leak, Mines been ok now for 6 months after using 2 bottles of the stuff (theres a lot of coolant in a T25) to cure a very small drip down the right hand side of...

Is it really worth spending more dosh on 'up-rated/heavy duty' front shock absorbers on my T25 high top camper ???
Has anyone fitted them and noticed enough difference to warrant the extra cost?
Thanks

Thanks Steve

1.9DG 1986 (water cooled) On the Air filter box there is the main inlet coming in from the outside of the engine compartment, then there are 2 other inlets that take 40mm ish pipe. Both my inlets are minus the pipes, Should it have pipes and where should they be located. I presume one is for cold st...

You could get away without bleeding the front brakes as the F to R pipe connects to the brake compensator? just under the floor, O/S/F. So as long as you didn't allow too much fluid drain air shouldn't get to the front line (use an old union with the pipe turned over pipe to stop leaking from compe...

Thanks Titus, good point, will give it a go at the weekend.
Did try the tighten it first method already..
Thanks Paul

Try WD40ing your nipples for a few days, then warm them up with a heat source (I use a gas blow torch (Caution)) and use a deep 6-pointed socket. Yes tried that apart from the 'heat' i thought it was a no no to use heat on callipers due to damage to the internal seals. Tried soaking regular over th...
