defiantly interested but still got a lot to do to get the bus on the road.

J, that's good with the engine, good luck with the MOT , hope all goes well. Mike

Been reading your thread, good luck and hope you get the bus fixed up ok. Thankfully by the sounds of it nobody was hurt, its worrying that folks are driving around in their pride and joy and there are others out and about with no insurance.

I've got a set on back order as well with VWH.

If you are talking about the front suspension ball joints then yes, the easiest way is to find somebody with a press to press them out and then they can press in the new ones, but I am lucky as I had the use of engineering equipment, I knocked out the ball joint spindle and took out the...

Matt48, That was what was confusing me, modern car lighting system normally is lights on, green light on dash whether side or headlamps, blue light is main beam/ headlight flash... But then we are talking about a 40+ year old vehicle now, so anything is possible, Ive spent 18+ hours fitting a...

It might be worth disconnecting the hazard switch and seeing if the indicators work,as it could be down to a dodgy hazard switch, as the relay should not keep ticking once the indicators have been cancelled, it may be getting a signal/power from the hazard switch. Just a thought, Mike

I used the hole to put a screwdriver blade through to turn the adjusters on the the brake shoes. I think that's what the hole is for. :P I'm guessing that with a wheel on the drum its usually covered so nothing would normally get in the drum Mike

Hi guys, Thanks for clearing that point up for me, I kind of makes sense now if other vehicle lights work the same way, guess I was expecting the blue dash light to light up on main beam as modern car systems do, my problem was that it was such a long time ago that I last drove the van I had...

It looks like everybody is out of stock , I've got some seat bases and back pads on order with VWH :lol:

Hi Bobster, Thanks for that, that's cleared up one question, Cheers Mike

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out my headlight dash indicator lights ( little blue and green indicators) what lights up and when.. I've just put a new wiring harness in my bus ('70' right hand drive UK bus). With the ignition off and lights off. If I pull the indicator stalk back to flash the...
