Re: Rear suspension wishbones: a cautionary tale

In Feb 22 I had an advisory off my mot to replace the rubbers on my drivers side wishbone.
Grabbed it to try and loosen and my thumb went through the side of it :shock:

Goes to show things aren't what they seem.

Re: Brake bed-in?

Correct me if I am wrong, but iirc there are 2 bleed nipples on each of the front brakes. Did you bleed all 4 ?

Re: Coolant leak

I too have a small leak and often top up the reserve and check the tank. When topping up the main tank there are always bubbles in it. To remove the air I use a straw with a strong copper wire shape like the letter J in it. Cover the top end of straw with thumb (not to let air escape) insert in bott...

Re: Rear Brake Adjusters

Is it the fact that the plate with the bolts on is coming off with the drum?
Does look odd, ( correct me if I'm wrong) but the nut has been removed so both can come out together ?

Re: Rear Brake Adjusters

Iirc the adjuster arm pulls the cog up inside the drum, (down plate side) to tighten brakes. Therefore the cog will have to be pushed up to release from the hole in the dust plate. I have used a large zip tie from inside the arm out around the pipe and back through the hole, the locking mechanism ke...

Re: Outdoor cover.

I've just bought my 2nd Go Outdoors waterproof breathable cover.
3 straps underneath 3 straps at the back and 2 zips for easy side access. I do put an elasticated rope with bits of pipe insulation on to protect the middle corners from the rubbing caused in winy conditions and to help air it.

Re: Seam glue splits

Thank you both. I have been trying to think of the best approach to this problem, yes remove the sealant, but which is the best method. Disc plate, wire wheel, shotblast or some other method. I don't have a garage so will have to work outside, could this cause more damage through exposure? Have boug...

Seam glue splits

I keep my bus undercover, (bad leakage on hi top, need to replace gutters) but have recently noticed that the glue/sealant down my panel seamsare splitting from top to bottom and I have now got rusty watermark on most of them. No rust rash or blisters, just rusty watermarks. Has anybody had this bef...
