    Yes Sat night camping is the plan. That's not to say Friday night is a no no if you have far to come.

    No idea ! Depends who makes them and what you ask for I guess. Safest is to contact a supplier and either buy some or ask them for the threads. Maybe you can specify threads and keep them the same as the rest ofnthe vehicle ??

    On my 2002 onwards they are M10 x 1.0 except 2 larger ones on the ABS which are M12. Search my thread as there are double and single flares which require SAE and DIN flare tools and you MUST use the correct nut. A double flare requires a...

    Put double layer of cling film over brake reservoir and screw cap on to reduce leakage by creating a partial vacuum. Don't drive it !!

    You can usually add a joiner just under the chassis rail. It is the bit in the wheel arch that rots. Make sure you get conifer pipes, copper is too soft and breaks when unscrewed at a later date. Make sure all flares on pipe ends are correct...

    As you have fitted they are not so far off vertical when the arm is down at an angle !! They are trailing arms after all. Of course, depends which way up you fitted them but as photo I wouldn't worry.

    The solid rubber section needs to be vertical ! I'm sure it isn't that critical. The 2 part Poly bushes make this a doddle.

    Good stuff ! It's key that it all sits in the pulleys otherwise it will never go on !! Must be at least 5mm bigger than the belt run !!

    If the belt is correctly on all the pulleys and down properly, pushing the tensioner will just allow it to fit over the crank pulley. I usually get it half on and then relocate my tensioner spanner and bite a bit more turn.

    15/16 inch AF spanner and extension bar. Fit around all top pulleys and idlers and tensioner. Make sure belt is down in grooves fully or it won't go on... Slide over crank pulley last. Don't put fingers between belt and pulley else if it slips...
