  1. Has @- i5oogt -still got a isuzu or something?
  2. @JustHarry you better be in on this.
  3. As long as the rivers behave this is the deepest we should get (they're 33's) I have got trying to avoid breakages/ panel damage in mind, and we'll do the tracks we think your vehicles are capable of doing. Yeah, we might push your limits, but it's not a wreck fest.
  4. Get him to send you some pictures
  5. Fuck yeah so keen it's going to be awesome Can we go now? How about now?
  6. I made a seat bed storage wood thing Also got some kitset kitchen cabinets and cut the depth down to suit, and cut all the drawers down. The drawers had a melamine panel screwed in for a base, but in the interests of saving weight I 86'd those and instead cut grooves in every side panel and cut some of the thin ply for a base. Then I put speed holes in the carcass, that made it a shitload lighter. You might also see I started painting the walls, not a fan of painting.
  7. I was thinking of going with agm's
  8. I have no interest in holidaying in a caravan. And yes it'll be vented, but I was going to vent through the floor. Do you think it'll be a problem?
  9. Slow progress what with the moving and the cold dark nights. Cut some strips of ply, then ran them through the saw to get just the top layer of ply. Then glued over the visible joints Fixed seat base down with the hatch for the battery compartment Still working on the slide out seat/bed. Main bed base cut but still needs a hatch put in it and fixing down 2nd coat of polyurethane on the roof, still a bit patchy, shows up more in the picture than irl Shed lyfe Everything we own is in the shed to the left Such reference
  10. Stand outside and press your face to the glass
  11. Seatbelts You need as many as there are berths for motorhome, also there is an occupants tag in your window
  12. High pressure water, it'll be rusted out by then
  13. Quite right, my mistake
  14. Pretty much right. Centre bearing flange should be around 3° off gearbox flange like you say to make the ujs work. This can be up or down btw (you drew down). Diff angle should be the same angle as centre bearing flange, but some say to angle it slightly up to counter suspension twist when accelerating. Personally I think yes for a race car, most of the info I've found on the internet comes from Americans setting up drag cars. I'd be pretty much bang on for a road car.
  15. Remember though, it shows normal temp when driving.
  16. So maybe not an airlock problem, it should've worked it's way out to the cap or reservoir by now if it was do you think
  17. Has the coolant level dropped at all?
  18. ^yeah that there I understand. If it had OEM arms still in it then they would bind and stop the suspension from operating. And that guy has made his own arms which would then have to be certified (obviously that example ^ is way beyond comprehension). But if none of the other components of the suspension has been modified or changed... . I'm trying very hard to not come across as an argument, but a conversation if you will. So in order to have lift springs in my vehicle I have to produce a catalogue of the springs every time I go for a wof? How, now or after say 3 years do I prove that the springs fitted are the ones in the catalogue? What do I do if the springs were fitted before I bought the vehicle? You might at this point say that I should just get it certified, which is a valid point. But, do I need to produce a catalogue for the certifier to check them against?
  19. @KKtrips do you have a copy of the previous sheet?
  20. But my lifted springs and longer shocks bolt straight in without modification, but I can't get a wof because the tester deemed them to not be direct replacement because they are lifted.
  21. Yes now that I re read it it doesn't seem vague, in fact it could be interpreted as being incredibly specific. What constitutes direct replacement? Aftermarket shocks? Aftermarket shocks that are "OEM replacement"? How do you prove that they are? OEM shocks? I mean if you really get specific then only the actual shocks that are removed from the vehicle are direct replacement for those shocks. I feel that you can clarify all you like, but this is the threshold sheet, it's not up to you. It's up to the wof testers, and they interpret these things in an incredibly broad spectrum.
