thanks rob

rough guess not much lol
in all serious ness i seem to recall some one saying they were low teens average
rob

looks good

afaik they do have to be insured by some one for your 3rd party cover to be in force

have you tried the caravan club one?(not 100% sure they do cover commercials tho)
i say them as they cover motorhomes etc and caravans that are over 8meter long
rob

easy enough to do (24mm bolt if memory serves) and jacking up just makes it easyer to get under
rob

do a search as egr removal has been covered many many times
yes its worth doing and is the first step towrds making your tdi much better performance wise
follow up with de cat and interccoler/inlet manifold clean out then your into intercooler upgrades and tweaked fuel pumps as long as the rest of the engine is tip top

in that thread look at the top pic there is a big bolt head on the right hand side of pic
thats the lock stop that hits the axle to limit steering lock
wind that out (not all the way tho) untill you have a slight gap on tyre to arm than do up the locknut
rob

very easy 1 spanner job
just wind the lock bolt out with wheel turned untill it can no longer touch the radius arm
ill have a look to see if i can find a pic of the bolt you need to adjust
rob
-
yep sounds like radius arm rub
you could just adjust thelock stops to prevent it happening again
wheel spacers will give you a better steering lock tho
and you would really need the 4 otherwise it would look daft
or you could get a bigger offset wheel also

well there you go you do learn new thing daily
my mate has just picked up his and i told him it should be like my disco one
o well i still think he needs a nick compact bottle jack
rob
-

thanks rob

-
its a 1900kg caravan (thats fully loaded
rob
-
would seriously love a 80 lc but cant afford the difference in price at the mo
so its going to be what i have got or what i can buy with what i can sell the disco for
i have never towed with a auto (owned a few tho) hence my question
rob
-
hi all
as per my other thread im undecided on my towing needs
so what would be better my 98 d1 300 tdi manaual or a 94 rrc soft dash 300 tdi auto (still on air sus)
thanks rob

Removing tyre valve stems

you can if your ultra carefull but as they cost pence its not worth the effort to try to remove them to re use (they perish the same as tyres so will give grief further along the line)
just cut them off on inside bead and bin them
