Hi
Venturing off the rock (Isle of Man) to Northern Ireland this summer. Any experience / advice to give for breakdown cover? Ferries will be involved.

TIA

Any mechanical reason why it wouldn't work. Mind you I don't have the sphericals to try!

Remember reading a very interesting thread on the degassing tank.

Re: Coolant hose crimped and plugged

You sure it's a 2.5 petrol?
If it's a diesel like mine, Sounds like the bleed hose (attach funnel as per YouTube bleed). Should come from a 3 way on the head. Plugged and folded back on itself is how my bleed hose is.

Re: Coolant Alarms

Nb,
Would that still do as required if the ciggy lighter was running off the Leisure battery?

Just curious. Not trying to hijack the thread.

Re: Air assisters in rear suspension

I have just fitted the air lift set to my side conversion this afternoon. I'm no mechanic and took about 90min / side. I have rigged them to be independent of each other.

Seriously consider getting a set of Spring compressors. Easy DIY job.

Re: Air lift bags on a side conversion

Thanks again Propnut.
Did you have any chafing issues as you went through the rear arch rubber Bing and hole covered by tape in the step?
Did the airlines fit side by side ok?

Re: Air lift bags on a side conversion

So,
I am all prepped for bag fitting (Spring compressors, axel stand).

Final call for suggestions.. Bearing in mind it's a side conversion (fridge, 2 ring gas burner, EHU fitments, cupboards, Gas cylinder and RnR bed)

Options
- linked via the T piece OR independent inflation valves

TIA

Re: Air lift bags on a side conversion

Jillygumbo, The Mad suspension set looks very similar to my kit that cost approx £100 from a different supplier. I have not however any experience of using them so there could be something that makes them a further £100 better. Good luck and Im sure someone will be along who can provide more clarity...

Re: Air lift bags on a side conversion

Thank you Propnut.

Have seen that thread but wondered if thinking had changed. Will invest in a spring compressor.

Hi Geoff
Thanks again. No bumping in this case. Just planning on reducing body roll.
