I used 4" Blue foam from here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UPHOLSTERY-FOAM-SHEET-HIGH-MEDIUM-DENSITY-80-x-68-ANY-THICKNESS-SIZE/331366922493 The big sheet did the whole rock n' roll + the back cushion with plenty spare. Easily cut with a sharp bread knife: Bernie shows you how: https://www.yout...

Thanks for the replys. Just want a decent comfortable bed/ cushions without having to pay the added scene tax! Currently dragging the spare mattress out of the house every time we go camping. Alright is a lovely nights sleep it a total ball ache not to mention dragging the extra weight around everyw...

Has anyone bought the foam mattress from jk? If so how comfortable are they? Don't really want the faff of having to carry a memory foam topper with me everywhere. Was thinking of getting a king foam mattress from ikea and cutting it into sections to use with the rock and roll bed as I know there pr...

Haven't given the clutch or hydrolics a thought! Was just assuming it was linkage or old oil causing it. Will have to look at it at the weekend.

It's still stiff with engine off. There's no noises coming from the gearbox.

I was planning in renewing all the bushes in the linkage and hope it would solve the issue.

What oil do you recommend for the gearbox?

My 4 speed box is getting harder to change gear. I can find gears no problem but just getting into the gears is the problem. It's stiff to change and it won't just slot into gear. Seems to be worse when warm. Is my gear linkage at fault or does it need a oil change or could it be the box it's self? ...

Only want to cover it mainly to keep it clean and keep the water off it.

Typical there sold out. Wrong time of year to buy one! Mine is a tin top with a low roof rack, I'm guessing a tin top cover will be fine.

Want to cover my van for the winter to as I don't use it much and to keep it clean. Where's the best place to get one from?

I put a hole in my sump from reversing into a kerb, so bought this one from fellows speed shop for about £400 ish. Doesn't fit with the rjes mount so my mate rejiged the mount so it would fit.

Thanks for taking the time to share the info guys. It's been a busy day at work and tapatalk wasn't working so I haven't been able to reply. I'll do a little more reading over the weekend, it looks like an EJ20 could be an option if the right one comes along. For now I think I'll try and find the n...

Isn't there a company in Australia that do kits to put the gears out of a Subaru box into the VW box. I looked at them once but can't remember the name. They were selling bolt In boxes for $2500 I think. No cheap but would transform the van I think.

I have a ej20 which is absolulty fine but I do think I wish I did have a little more. The ej20 is apparently 115 hp and the ej2.5 is 160hp! When mine gives up I know what will replace it!

I paid £440 for it but bought two engine mounts from them. I did ring rjes and he said he gave up with designing them. Don't get it there's so much more that bloke could do but hasn't bothered. Shame really.
