Thanks Bluesnailman, forgot to mention my bus is a 71 so already has front disc set up - also recently replaced master cylinder.

So finally decided to update the anchors after another numpty pulled out in front of me on a roundabout. Gone for the VW Jim kit, anyone got a pic of best mounting place ? I have belly pans fitted (from factory) so also wondering if vac pipe will fit through were loom runs ?

Justkampers do the kit to fit late calipers to 71 only spindles - its basically 2 late calipers and 4 spacers for the bolt holes. Fitted this to my 71 and just had to grind a bit off the calipers for clearance.

I have an early mph speedo, reads about 37000 miles from memory, pm me if you're interested and I'll dig it out and send you a picture.

I have a late bay tank and sender fitted to my 71 bus and have finally got round to fitting a late bay fuel gauge and backing plate in an effort to get a needle that doesn't wave about like a drowning man's arms. However, gauge reads full and only have about 25 litres in the tank. I have tried...

Yes both dash lights should flash at the same time on early bays, thats they way they were wired at the factory. I seem to remember someone on this forum coming up with a way to get them to flash individually so worth a search if it bothers you. Personally if I get to the stage where I can't...

Looks like Trigger's broom needs a refurb too :)

Thanks Matty, enjoy your trip

Hi Gary, thanks for the reply. Still umming and rrrrring about need for a fridge, it's in the frame if I go that way.

Thanks Karlos, well spotted. I have shortened it since that pic as it was also getting in the way of the dipstick too.

I went for a CB Performance breather tower, comes with blanking plugs if you don't need to use all the connectors. I have it connected to both air filters and petrol pump stand for positive crank ventilation, makes it easy to fill oil using small jug or one with flexi spout.

Could be tailgate seal damaged or tailgate not shutting properly. There are adjustable stops on each side to make it sit nice and flush when closed. If you are replacing the seal make sure you get a good quality one as the cheap versions don't fit properly and the rubbers too hard to give an...

If you have the small round reservoir that's located above the windscreen washer tank just above the kick panel then you will need the 33 inch one, don't forget the rubber seals for both ends and the plastic hose clips - dont use metal hose clips as you can over tighten them leading to the...

I have a Volkswares full width r and r bed and am looking for a kitchen unit to house hob, sink, water and gas bottles. Anyone got any experience with the removable type pods or weekender style units. Van will be used for weekends mainly so don't need masses of storage and quite happy with a...

Another vote for Buttys Bits, I now have a smooth graduation rather than the "stomp on it to go" I had got used to. Excellent communication and delivery too.😃

Wire reinforced fuel pipe maybe, or a high nylon content? As Mike suggests probably best to change dizzy cap and leads, I had similar sparks round cap which I only noticed as it got dark - wondered why I'd had a persistent misfire 😀

If you know the name and paint code then Halfords can get it mixed for you if they don't stock it. They still have L90D Pastel White in rattle cans for example.

Classic Dubs need to be driven otherwise they seize up, been running mine to work and back a few times and even got a wave from a cyclist ! Perhaps he was just happy to see someone else doing a similar speed ? Mind you speedo did show 75 at one point on a long straight and got dead bugs on...
