Go for the better quality slave cylinders. I fitted cheap ones a few years back , had to change them again a few months later as the seals had popped.

Thanks Robsey, I'm planning on doing doing some bodywork on it next year and we have plans to re trim the interior. I did all the bodywork repairs and re paint outside ( no option) and unfortunately that allowed some moisture to carry on the slow rusting process. I also found that the rustoleum pain...

Looking good

I have a pierberg one for sale that was run on lpg and was fine .
PM me if interested

We have success. Multiple breaks and dodgy contact from top connection to the horn ring .
Thanks for the help guys

There appears to be a break somewhere between the very bottom earth connection of the column and the horn . How does the earth from the horn actually connect through to the column .

Ok thanks oldie, no wonder I cant find 12v anywhere up there then . So I should have 12 v on one of the connectors down at the horn then . Is that right? Sorry for sounding like a plank.

Earths all checked out ok as far as I can make out. No 12v anywhere.
I'm wanting to know if 12v should be picked up on the horn ring. If not , where should I be getting 12v in the circuit?.

Can anyone confirm that at the steering wheel end of things , with things dismantled , should I have 12v at the black connector with a brown/ blue wire? This connects to the spring connector that makes contact with the ring around the base of the steering wheel . Thanks https://i.imgur.com/8ji2IPm.j...

Should there be a little bit of stainless J or U section stuck to the panel about here, to stop the spring clip on the inspection hatch scraping the paint off? Pretty sure that one of the SA built vans used to have one :? https://i.imgur.com/CzTKUia.jpg Looked like you were having fun in that pictu...

Replace the bronze bush that the spindle slips into in the engine housing. Easy to do and inexpensive .

Yeah good point

Had the headlight switch fail the other day , the rocker was solid in the off position . Before ordering a new one i thought I'd have a look inside ( I'm a tight git ) Anyway turned out to be a small metal ball bearing that had popped out of the spring loaded indexer type thing, popped it back in, b...

I had a similar issue with the same corner on our van .fabricated a piece ( several bits actually) , it's all behind the bumper so not on show .
Go for it , what could go wrong
