Re: Gear Stick Came Off In My Hand!!!!

There are LHD and RHD gearshift but the transmission selector shaft is the same. The ear on your selector shaft is just worn off, it isn't a design feature.

Re: A Carrot for The Horse?

Intriguing....I wonder where it goes. Passenger side(for a LHD car) between the locker door and the wheel arch where the louvers are in the ad. The louver placement makes it obvious to a truck owner that it is a 2wd. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-gA97_5pNXIE/UBg-ih-w9aI/AAAAAAAAFtk/XoNRTsgwLsI...

Re: Bulkhead removal pros and cons

Take a look at a 6 seater doka. They have the half height wall that you are considering making with a trim piece on the top that finishes just under the top of the bench seat backrest.

The van doesn't need to be 25 years old, they are just easier to import then.

Re: Is it a Syncro?

Syncro trucks have the filler just forward of the rear wheel arch while syncro vans have the filler on the rear quarter panel above the wheel arch.

Re: Panasonic Toughbook......

The CF30s are much better(faster) and the screen is easier to read in direct sunlight. The onboard USB 2.0, wireless, bluetooth and ethernet make it a much more modern device.
Just a FYI for those looking for toughbooks for their syncros the future.

The gunk under the aluminum plate is probably from galvanic corrosion by the dissimilar metals.

Re: doka sliding windows

Black version came standard on tristars and the silver versions were a option for the non-tristar trucks.
That's the rumor at least.
