Nice one - thanks for that.

Hello all,

Can the gas tank pressure be adjusted on an original westie underfloor tank to run UK appliances or can you simply use another regulator in series to reduce te pressure to 30mb? So I could T off the cooker at 50mb and a new dometic 123 at 30mb?

Cheers.

Looks like my link is the later cranked one sorry!



I have now found stainless steel backing plates at http://www.vwbusshop.de/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; if anyone else is looking!

Thanks all.

Thanks for the reply.

It is a late 1991 14" and I'll check tonight if the link is cranked or not.

Cheers!

Hi all, So finally got round to stripping out my noisy front drive shaft and here are the results and a couple of questions! Firstly, I think this is why the joint was noisy!!! As you can see below, the ball cage is broken and the ball and debris is everywhere. Fortunately, I have a replacement join...

Baxter's offerring sounds much better, and I'd rather keep my money in The UK, so when I'm ready (prob next winter!) I'll be giving you a shout...

Hi all,

Just seen these on the Diesel Vanagon Yahoo group...

Any thoughts? A good option?

Hi,

I have 4 steel 15" mercedes wheels for sale. Crap tyres, but only £30 to get rid of them! Collect from Cheltenham, Glos.

As for the rest, try CJ at Syncrospares or Brickwerks for the CV joint, Syncroservices or Busman for the decoupler and VC.

Cheers.

Thanks again for the help. I owe you a beer or three if we ever meet.

Many thanks Aidan, Forgive me - if I understand this correctly you are saying AHU has a X / 9 pinion and the original 14" box code 6N(E) will have a X /8 pinion and therefore it won't mesh so I cannot just use the original speedo drive? If the wrongly meshing speedo drive was installed, would i...

Aidan, CJs offered me the parts I need for the speedo drive (and diff lock!) but says you're the man to identify the correct colour code for the speedo drive I need? The diff unit is AHU code, which is hopefully a match to my rear being a AHF 5.43 / 38:7 unit. I am running 205R16 tyres, which are 36...

Hi CJ,

Yes - have had parts from you recently - I did email you a month or so ago wanting a few spares for this diff unit but no reply so presumed you didn't have what I needed.

I'll email you again with a list of what I need..

Cheers.

Aidan, So I took it apart last night as per your instructions and managed to free it up. Unfortunately, the external part of the sleeve fell to bits with nowhere to put the circlip back on! Options? or do you or anyone have one I can purchase? http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss24/kjhxxx/03-03-09_...

Aidan,

Thanks very much. I'll give this a go. I suspect that I have further issues as the alloy sleeve is falling to bits on the end so I wonder if these are available as a replacement or I'll need to get one made up on the lathe.....

Cheers.

Thanks Aidan, Yes, the diff lock I am trying to fix is the front one, so I think I'll take the front cover off and seeing what's up. What I noticed last night is that the diff lock pin is easily moved with a push as long as the indicator light switch is removed! The switch works fine and is free, bu...
