Re: Caliper piston tool

I didn't think of a G clamp and wood. The eBay item looks the part so I think I'll go for that.

Thanks for the suggestions

Re: Photos request - rear 3 point seat belts

They look great and out the way. Where did you buy them? I bought 2 from Brickworks but may return one now.
Thanks

I've checked the wiki and there are some good articles/suggestions. Unfortunately, the photos can't be accessed. Can anyone with photos please upload to help me? T...

Re: Scotland Easter Tour - advice please?

Instead of starting in Edinburgh maybe driving up the M74' through Glasgow on the M8 then over the Erskine bridge would be a good option. That way you are only about 20 mins from Loch Lomond and the campsite at Luss is lovely but they may be strict about the amount of nights stayed. I would consider...

Ladder attachment

Just bought a tailgate ladder and wonder what the best way to secure it is. Would self tappers be strong enough or is there a better solution?
Thanks Alan
