Just leave it in the bay, your still going to have to run lines in the bay anyway so all your gaining is a bit of space at the back where the abs block is. Hardly worth it when you think of the hassle of having to find a speedo work around.
The speedo would be a massive workaround to get the...
I was having a similar problem with mine, main plug looks all good no corrosion , made sure it was all secured, tried some contact cleaner etc no luck, occasionally wiggling it made the abs pump jump into life so I removed the plug, sprayed the plug and socket with LOADS of contact cleaner, left...
Looks really good. I like the red theme on the outside but looks a bit much on the interior.
Shows how a little effort can make a massive difference! Good work
Big long thin but and bolt, ramp them up, hold closed with mole grips, remove nut and bolt, fit final nut and bolt.
That's how I done the last set when I had a subframe off, the vans were done in situ and I just used longer bolts, it was a shite job
Had it out again today since it's nice. I've had a little issue where on hard braking it dives left, the pedal feels nice, I've bled more litres of fluid than I care to remember, all calipers are free and healthy, geometry is spot on.
Doing a bit of research I found one thread where a faulty...
You know, I've always said that too but my current 182 van on a standard exhaust and epas is actually very nice to live with! Although I don't daily it, I'm sure I could!
As above fiddly but they go in ok as long as you make sure you are at the right angle. I retained the clips but was very tempted to go without them as above.
I can't remember off the top of my head but will jacking the car higher, possibly removing the bottom bolts from the rear dampers give...
Cold rear tyres and shot rear dampers would be my guess. The rear is very unpredictable and horrible when the rear dampers are gone. They won't always have oil leaking down them either so don't assume they are all good because there is no sign of leaks
definitely, but I suppose the key is the experience of having done a load of them and having the space and tools to do it. My Clio conversion took me the best part of 6 months by the time I got it on the road. Doing a few hours a night and the odd weekend, sourcing parts etc but that was...
not start to finish but I've helped finish one off that was already done, and done other similar conversions. Its on my wish list to build one maybe this winter
i dont own a valver but assume you can fit 195/50/15 on those wheels? set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3 would do lovely on it! Tyre performance has come on a lot in the last 20 years so it would transform a valver!
Thats lovely BTW! interested if it goes up for sale lol
