:welcome2:

hour a side , bloody hell:eek: we did all 4 springs and shocks in just over an hour.

you might be able to undo the bottom shock nut then jack up on chassis, push axle down and slip the old spring past it and the repeat in reverse for refitting. bit of a pig but worked on mine once.

clean the sliding switch with cotton buds, mine did exactly this and since cleaning has been perfect.

i bet he's been chewin' and snappin' em anorl:mad::D

the robbing git:D

i found laminate floor underlay was good when i had the van top on, nice and light so stayed stuck to the roof and it's dirt cheap. cheaper still if you can find a roll in a skip like i did.:D

it'd look like the cover of a toxic avenger comic:D

i do like bilston:) i'm only in wedensfield, will say hello next time i'm over the market matey.

i know jawel paints in wolves make up aerosols to your requirements and so do halfords.

buying one, owning one, spending on one, and driving one. take yer pick they all ****ed her off to the point of leaving.

if you put your location in you may find someone willing to weld new brackets on for you aswell. i'd be inclined to check the rear prop uj's aswell once its repaired as it might have pulled on the yokes or spiders .

You can buy weld on replacement brackets, i would avoid driving it at all like that but if you must then try to secure it to the rod somehow, maybe with big ratchet strap or such like and limp it down the half mile as slow as possible.

tdi conversion is easy for 200tdi into 2.5td 90. a days work for a home mechanic if you have all the bits and a driveway.

mine does that when the belt need re-tensioning, worse on a damp morning.
