Trying to source a couple of these to replace two knackered ones while I am doing my very sensible midwinter repaint. These are to fit a cut out of 99 x 23.5 mm on the locker doors. I have found a company called trailertekcom in Winchester that have them but just shy of £60 for two delivered...

Any recommendations for masking tape that will give clean lines with no bleeding on a two tone paint scheme.

So here goes nothing ? Decided to send off and see what happens. I did intend to do this last year hence the autosleeper decals I stuck on the sides, but never got round to it to busy being away. Now I am getting ready to paint the outside all decals will be removed, so thought why not while it...

I have decided to redo my heating ducting as I am not happy that the stuff I used originally is able to take the heat produced by Eberspacher D5. I am going to fit a reducer on the heater output 90mm to 60mm to make the ducting easier to work with. The best price I have seen for the 60mm ducting...

Having finally deciding to fit an underslung tank as opposed to refillable cylinders I set about ordering one this morning. My ideal was 55 litres but none to be found out of stock everywhere same story with most sizes. Finally found a 38 litre at the lpg shop in Leicester so nabbed that one...

Came upon this today and had to ask the owner to move it so I could get in to the drive adjacent. Those levelling rams were a joy to watch in action, I have rear air suspension but would love those on the front...£££££££

Can anyone tell me the exact minimum locker hight needed for 11 kilo gasit cylinders please. I know they are 580mm how much headroom is needed above that.

I am moving the hook up inlet on my conversion and adding a consumer unit. The original library wiring did not include a consumer unit. The unit I have bought has two breakers and space for a third, one breaker will be used for lights the other for a couple of sockets mainly for my ac fridge. My...

Finally found someone to make me a door to replace the bus type doors on my library conversion. Got it this week and with the good weather took a few days off work to get it fitted. Having removed the original doors the hole is almost twice the width I need so made a steel frame to fit the gap...
