    Truck cab roof removal

    How strong is the windscreen with the roof taken off ? Will it snap down onto my face at 70mph ?

    Anyone used this stuff to line their bed ?

    Cool. Thats pretty much the conclusion that I had come to. If I really rough up the surface with sand paper I think it should be ok ? What sort of primer did you use on your application ? I will report back on the outcome. Cheers !!

    Booming Roof

    The roof on my Truck Cab is very flexible and make a very loud booming noise if I drive over 60mph. I was thinking of riveting some strips of steel banding to the underside to strengthen it up. Anyone had any experience of this or offer any advice ? :scratching_chin:

    Fuel Pump Referb

    I have been advised by my garage that my fuel pump is on its way out. Symptoms are, lots of smoke on start up, lots of smoke when booting it up a hill, fails emissions on MOT test. They got it through by tweaking it right down but there was no power at all. I have had a bit of a look around...

    New Crossmember, Tow bar issue.

    There is definately no thicker plate in there. Think I may have a duff one ? It has two bits of strengthening that could be described as a W and an M that go round the holes. I bought the crossmember off a friend who got it from Richards Chassis. So I may give them a call. Cheers for the...

    New Crossmember, Tow bar issue.

    What do you mean by "inside" ? I dont think the wall of the crossmember is strengthened at all as far as I can see. What I am most worried about is the face plate flexing the wall of the crossmember and deforming it.

    Really don't wan't to ask this but..... What have you done to rear ? Im looking at doing something like the LED conversion. But from my quick look around, they look very expensive.

    I do the odd bit of wading. Not really been as high as the lights though. Never had a problem with them filling up with water. When you say Hella clear-lens units. Are they the same as the ones I put the link to ?

    Headlight replacement.

    Hi. I snapped the plastic part off the back of my headlight housing last night. Annoying as the bulb cant be clipped in place now. I have superglued temp fix. While im at it I might as well replace both the headlamp units. The ones in there aint to bad but are looking a bit rusty. on the...
