I have single silent gliss rails in the front and i let the curtains just hang down when closed and use tie backs when not in use to make the ugly man style curtains, by the cab doors. Ive got a panel so i only have curtains in the rear but i have twin rails one at the top and one the bottom of the ...

cheers guys, the only issues i hve is that i dont have any cupboards to store the bottle as i only a full width westy rock and roll bed. The way mine is set out is that there could be room on the sliding door side of the bed would it be ok to put the exhaust vent on that side due to the door being t...

I took the sizes from vwcurtains and modded them to suit what i wanted just needed material and found two sets of massive checked curtains at B&Q cost me a total of £20 and got me mum to knock them up and still have tons left for plenty of cushions (luckily she was a seamstress years ago) the on...

this is a pic of the heater in question...

Hey, Been hunting on fleabay this evening for wedge bits and pieces and fell apon a Red Propex Heater. Ive spoken to the owner and said he'd take £200 for it. Its still in good working order and comes with everything except the gas pipe and bottle. Im just wondering what the set up is like to instal...

cheers guys, actually ive still got the wish bones to do but they are original so i wont bother trying i'll get them done in the new year with the upper and lower ball joints... I did forget to mention that i've already done the track rod ends as they had almost seized when i got her... Im suprised ...

Been gradually changing the bushes on the front of the panel to solve the squeek i get when hitting speed bumps or ramps etc... so far ive replace the suspension for the adjustable avo shocks and 70mm springs ARB lower bushes, Anti role bar bushes but still got the steering rack ones to do (keep for...

cheers guy's you've been a real help, i've managed to find a set of 13month old 36's with 30mm chokes on ebay which have previously been set up and run on a 2.0ltr Aircooled (they're also on vzi) they are just the carbs as he's uprated them to 40's as he is now running a bigger engine after the prev...

Morning All :lol: Finally made the decision that the old crappy solex carbs need to go and i am now in the market for a set of DRLA's but am not 100% sure what one's to go for... Ive a 2.0ltr stock CU motor so am i right in thinking that a set of 36's will do the job or would i need to go any bigger...

The glue they cn supply you is the best on the market it sticks solid within seconds and can take heat to upto 70dg they are definatley worth talking to, i did my who;e van myself but they offer a service f...

Been toyling with the idea of selling my early panel to get a new modern car but i really dont want to sell her and looking on fleabay today i fell apon this advert for a 2.0ltr 1999 subaru set-up for Aircooled t25's. If this is fesable it could be the compromise i'd need to keep the van... http://c...

thanks for your comments guys, i havent taken her out yet as im still carpeting the interior at the mo but she's hopefully going to get a long run tomorrow... as with the oil its only been in for say 500ish miles and until about a month ago i was using her quite regularly and i used the morris oil f...

wow ok i didnt realise they would take that long to tighten up, i have put my foot done for a couple of minutes but was worried it'd get worse.lol

i'll give it a run out in the mroning and report back, if they dont get better is it expensive to change them?

Hey everybody, Started the van today after a few long weeks of being left to collect cobwebs and dust only to find that my hydraulic tappets on one side wont adjust up??? Normally they take a few seconds everytime you freshly start her and they adjust fine but this time its just well out... My quest...
