Re: Removing Original Decals

Mine came off with a heat gun set on low or try using a hair dryer if your not brave. They peel off fairly easy and you can use surgical spirit/petrol to wipe down after.

Hand brake on ?? in park??

That will teach me to copy and paste things.... (sorry)

Cheers Tribal. They are very similar as to what mine look like, but at that price.... :)
Not sure about the nut spacings? Is that the PCD you mention? What is it for the Bongo? Any ideas

After taking the van to have it's tracking/wheel balancing done, it turns out that the two passenger side alloy wheels have now been bent a bit. A lot, as it turns out, and now anything speed wise over...

Re: Fitting drop links and Arb's (front & rear)

Well, after a bit of an easy start with the near side (passenger) front drop links and Anti-roll bar bush, the drivers side ones were a complete B!£(H to do. I ended up having to grind off one of the nuts as it had rounded off. Anyways... here's a few pics of the front arb's and drop link renewal. H...

Re: Fitting drop links and Arb's (front & rear)

Fitting drop links and Arb's (front & rear)

Hi all.
I have looked around for a guide on fitting drop links and anti-roll bushes for the front and rear of the van, but couldn't find one. Has anybody got one, or can they advise on the best plan of attack?

Thanks... Foz

Re: Leisure Battery Not Charging from Engine

Had a similar problem with mine the other month. Turns out that the split charge relay had got water in it and had rusted solid. Ordered a new one from Raw Components and it's all working again :wink:
