If you do drop it all outside, wind the van back under the lean to with the winch

Sorry

No worries, hope you get the thing sorted out!

I think you last post was deleted? But here's my reply to it anyway... :) Jeez. I hope thats not the same mob who did that welding work is it? :x Could this firm be of use as they are on your doorstep: http://cartechautos.co.uk/automatic-transmission-service/?gclid=CPyWls7s3NACFSm-7QodS88FXg" o...

Perhaps one wasn't fitted then.

This however, is the sort of thing I meant, It might be worth a punt for a couple of quid

I thought there was one too. Its a small 10p coin sized drum shaped thing with an outlet each end?

Paint it as you suggest but nothing in the runners track. As you say, the roller bearing will soon rip the new paint and go on to get in the bearing to clog it. Personally, I'd use a light oil on the runners tracks rather than grease because that eventually dries and attracts dust and grit which can...

The factory cab headlining is folded over the windscreen aperture and glued on. F.ord, for example, used little u shaped barbed clips to help hold the headlining in place, along with glue to secure it. That said, modern adhesives would probably be enough to hold it in place without clips ( bearing i...

If you could post some images of the rusted area, people can advise with a good route to take

Lighter fuel works well too. In a well ventilated area of course

The sandblasting route is only 100% effective because unless you get inside those seams you are only treating the result, rather than the cause, of the corrosion. So, unless your bodyshop in some fashion effectively treat the mating flanges before fitting new metal, your rust issues will soon return...

I think Mike is trying to tell you to buy the correct seals from him.

They are the correct ones and work!

Looks very nice :ok Its a big spooky as my first van was a Holdsworth Villa, 2-toned in the same fashion although I used F-ord Diamond white and F-ord Olympic blue for the lower area. I love Olympic blue as that was my favourite RS2000 colour when I worked in a F-ord dealership, light years ago so i...

As an aside, if it were me, I'd relocate that fuel filter to underneath the van, closer to the tank outlet and use fuel pipe clips instead of jubilee clips. Not a bad idea to replace the fuel lines too while you're about it. Jus sayin...
