Love the pics - keep them coming, please !
As others mentioned, was wondering about the welding / certificates / insurance etc. as that is a very big thing these days.
" ... Welding/repairing lifting equipment is illegal now.. " So you basically can only swop like for like ?
That can be interesting...
We work a lot with heavy lifting people in the harbours putting big thing on trains & ships. Love working with the guys - and girls - as they have a very special sense of humour....
Not good regarding the non LR side - the LR side sounds unfortunatly all too familiar...
The #$^%$#^#%@%$# 300 Tdi needed 9 adjustments to get it onto the gearbox - and it is hot here..
Good luck with the 90 - use it please !
...and put up the pics. Like that vehicle a lot.
Value is something only you can judge.
Fitting a 200 Tdi in a RHD Series is not t oo difficult - basically the only real mod is the RH enginemount on th chassis although people have told me there is a way around that..
Make sure you can insure the thing vefore getting the spanners & grinder out - UK insurers are weird...
Bon Courage !
I've just about finished the 200 Tdi into Series and awaiting the time to do the handbrake.
As the Hybrid is just that - an Hybrid, I don't care about originallity etc.. Stage one front, full power pack, powersteering, parabolics, Koni's, roll cage, everything metal gavanized.
2.5 is also a very nice engine in a SWB - but cold start is less good.
Steve Parker does a good 300 Tdi into Series conversion kit.
