Do you get much movement when its running ?

No rock solid

any chance you could take some pics of how its mounted ? They welded two brackets to the box and then used one of the existing mounts. They also used the original exhaust flange by grinding it down and then welding the new pipe on to it. http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac209/stagg65/photo-2.jpg ...

£174 all in. with a life time guarantee.

I think so you tend to have more power at top end revs.
The engine runs cooler now which has to be a good thing.

Hi all because i have a 1.9 diesel engine fitted in my bus now i realised that the standard vw exhaust doesn't exist . So because the previous owner used the 1.6 exhaust it was restricting the flow plus looked poo. Took myself to RSR of Redhill today and got a stainless steel exhaust made up and fit...

Hi all trying to match my resprayed t25 but can't find the right match.
L62 ( ivory) is very very close but not enough ,but I see there is an L567 ( ivory) before I go out and waist more money can anybody tell me if it is the same colour, cheers Paul.

Hi all, Just putting a better box in my t25 at the mo and thought I'd change the clutch at the same time. Thing is my engine is from a 1.9 diesel caddy (AEF) married to a four speed. But the clutch kit I need to buy is it for the 1.9 engine or the 1.6 gearbox. Or are they the same thing, does that m...

So when I had the cam belt changed my garage were stumped. I had to research it myself to get one to fit. As far as the tensioner is concerned the 1.6 and...

Thinking of adjusting the timing my self.
What I'd like to know is, if I loosen the three bolts at the front and the one at the back will it affect the timing belt.
I don't want it to loosen and bugger everything up.

Just had a full service on my 1.9 d . Oil, all filters and timing belt. The thing is that starting not to good on cold mornings now and when the engine gets up to full running temp it starts what only i could call as pinking. Now i decided to try pulling the pump advance lever out while it was doing...

The prebuilt one's on the net are WAY WAY too much money, building your own is the way ahead.
I built mine from a doña caravan and very please with the finish.

50mm handles well no boating on the corners, but dont forget the shocks as well

Ive had three full camper conversions in the past which have been great but the biggest problem ive always found is that you cant really use them as a daily drive They are just too heavy and uneconomic to use every day. So some months back i bought myself an empty shell and then got to work building...
