I did not make a hole . Do you see the trim piece that goes up the sides and across the top . pull out the rubber welting from the center . there is then a bunch of screws that are exposed . Remove the screws and cut along the calking where it meets the bumper across the bottom . I think you...

There are screws in the face and also some screws in the sides .you have to go in through the side cupboard . also I removed the hole back of the camper to do it . You will probably find that all the floor under it is dry rotten . I already mentioned that I sold my JB500 last summer . Just...

Thanks I will be checking out your suggestions .

Can you tell from the Vin number what it is ? W V 2V0245GG057135 ? Tried looking on Samba ,but could only find numbers to the end of air cooled ones .Thanks

So lack of knowledge again .when they talk about 16 all the time ,are they referring to the length of the rear swing arm ? And did they make the 16 in 1986 ? I will have to measure mine when I pick it up to see if its a 14 or 16 . Thanks

Thank you ,I have been on the Samba site for a few Hours today . and yes lots of info there . I am still waiting for the auction house to contact me with my pick up appointment time . Holidays coupled with Covid , hard to get things done .Hopefully I will have it by the end of next week .Excuse...

This is sort of funny . I purchased a Doka syncro at an auction the other day . Going to be fixing it up and hopefully having some adventures with it . I have not picked it up yet because of the holidays . They say it does not run ,so I do not know what I am in for yet . Maybe that's what I am...

Thank you for your help . I am going to try and keep the waterboxer if I can . My thought is more HP will just be more broken driveline stuff .And I am old so not in a hurry . Thanks

Great Thanks

That one may be the gold standard . Mine is rusty and does not run Yet !! Hard to find them .No jeeps will be harmed for a while ,Ha ha

Hi , I was just the winning bidder on a 1986 Volkswagen Doka Syncro at an auction . Can you recommend a good parts source for this vehicle in the US or better yet Canada ? There is a good place in England , but that must get pretty pricey .Thanks

On the bigger box campers I think they go super singles so the front and back tires will follow the same track or rut . Because the sprinters use wheel spacers I don't think it would be that hard to switch .I was going to talk to Agile ,they would know what to do or if it can be done .But you...

You mention that dually rear tires are an advantage . I know for load they are , but for mud or sand ?? I have a dually sprinter and have been debating on weather to convert it to singles . But I am not sure what one would work better . I know a unloaded two wheel drive dually pickup is useless...

Nice van , I have a 08 sprinter . When I purchased it they told me there were recalls on it . Question is where did you go for the work ? Thanks

As a past owner . They are fun and you get a lot of waves and attention . Most of these vehicles were never designed for north American high speed roads .They really struggle keeping up ,add some wind and a hill and you are screwed . Parts can take weeks to get if available, and cost much more...

Thank you for your help ,I will check out the wires and make sure they are ok . And yes the Trojan have taken a charge to over 14 volts ,so a DC to DC is a great idea . Thanks

My max has performed perfectly, but not real heavy duty abuse . It is easy to hitch up and I find a lot of the time I just pull the receiver pin and slide the hole thing out . If I have any complaint, its that I get grease on my pants when I rub against it .

Thank you ,I was thinking there must be an issue that made them park it in the first place.

So you may be the guy to ask . I just found a 2001 disco 2 . it has 132,000 kilometers on it . Its been sitting for a bit but starts up and moves around . The owner just contacted me and dropped the price to 2,000 Canadian dollars because someone cut out and took the catalytic converters last...

Hi all ,so i have a question for the electrical smart people on here . I have a 2008 Sprinter van ,it was a former fire command and investigation unit . The unit is already wired with led lights and plugins . Everything is powered up through a solenoid when you turn the key on .The unit has the...
