Where did you get a gaiter pack from? My gear lever one has split..
Also – when you bleed the clutch you want to be doing it from the bottom up. Ie. from the clutch slave. I presume you have cut the inspection hatch into lower part of the angled panel to the right of the heater (to the left of your legs)? You need to do that to get to the clutch slave then make a bleeder out of an oil pump pot and a length of clear tube, then open the nipple on the clutch slave and pump from the bottom of the system to the top. Obviously make sure it doesnt pour out of the top. I usually start from a dry system..
Snorkel kit – probably have to make your own. Rubber flare arches I would try the flexible ones that you can get for defenders.
For lining material I would suggest megavanmats who do an ultra stretch material – used lots for vw vans and the like.
Mine is always fine on emissions though I know Lance always used to drop a can of diesel redex into his before the test and take it for a good motorway blast!
Have to do the brakes soon on mine, do you know what discs and pads to get??

May 18, 2014 at 12:15 am #901AnonymousGuestI ordered everything through http://www.pecas-umm.com they’re based in Portugal. I couldn’t translate the website automatically on my PC, so I used google translate to check part names etc.
I’ll dig out the part numbers.Got gaiters, new lights, door cards, discs, drums, filters, spicers..,, and the list goes on. They have the lot
Thought I subscribed to this thread, must have gone to junk folder. Thanks for the reply

February 7, 2015 at 4:59 pm #947AnonymousGuestSome pics of the welding
February 7, 2015 at 5:03 pm #948AnonymousGuestNearly there now, went down on the brakes during the mot/doe.
Ordered some up from Portugal. Just the nice things now, winch needs painting, electric heated leather seats are in. Carpet lined rear and front
February 13, 2015 at 12:16 pm #951fritzMemberLooks like a labour of love with all of the welding, nice work!
….heated seats?! Next level UMM comfort!
Looking pretty smart. How is the winch powered?
February 15, 2015 at 8:29 am #952AnonymousGuestSuper winch powered by the pto, looking for a bigger engine for comfort now and that’s her. 😛
February 15, 2015 at 1:56 pm #953fritzMemberdamn that looks really smart in that paint too.
Hold up. PTO?!!! Can you forward pictures and details of this? I’ve been after a PTO to suit mine (the same) for as long as I’ve had him!
Also considered an engine change – currently considering Audi 3.0 TDV6 out of an A4 or A6.
February 22, 2015 at 9:32 am #954AnonymousGuestI’ll get on that, had it out yesterday and the accelerator stuck open whilst giving her welly
January 14, 2016 at 8:22 pm #994fritzMemberGeorge – did you take any pictures of the pto on the gearbox? Any part numbers or more info about it? I REALLY want to find one!!
thanks,
fritz
