Re: Front door rattle / closing

Ah good to know, I'll take a look to see if the rubber stops are present soon. Bending the door...sounds scary, assuming you have to approach this gingerly at first :lol:

Tie rod castle nut torque

Cheers,

Re: Rock and Roll bed supplier recommendation

thanks for the info, nice little conversion you got there! Does the JDS bed cantilever out, or are there feet that slide forward over the floor?

Re: Cylinder Head Advice

Cylinder Head Advice

Hey folks, Blazerbob here- long time stalker, first time poster. Despite having stalked on here for a while, i only came to own my bongo a couple of months ago but have done 300+ miles a week in it. It shows 94000 on the clock, not sure of km / mile split. No service history. I got round to taking h...
