          • That's a smashing little job Kev. I've seen as Hans said a T5 with the table storage built into the sliding door. Its a bought not built kit in the form of a door trim with pocket and clips to hold the table.

            • Today I fixed the table leg to the tailgate , I cheated and bought a kit.








              Fitted .












              I then fitted my intercooler , I was surprised by how much better the van pulls , a nice simple mod for the AJT engine .








              Quick test drive and wash the van .

              Looks good when the vans wet , shite when it has dried haha .

                        • Have trimmed the ply of our sliding panel. But the metal work on it is another matter same with the barn doors, not sure how to go about or just paint them a matching grey.

                            That inner sliding door panel looks all squared off on the top edge Kev.Was that done so it could be carpeted?

                              • I don’t think my van likes me ......

                                I attempted to fit a new passenger side lower wishbones today , a nice straight foward job after work .

                                I managed too loosen all the bolts apart from the camber bolt , I hit the spanner with a lump hammer several times and it still wouldn’t budge , despite the fact that I wire brushed the threads and gave them a spray with penetrating fluid in the week .

                                After a few hours of swearing it came loose , but now it was seized in the bush !

                                Another half hour or so and I managed to carefully free it off , I had no choice really as I didn’t have a new camber bolt , it did come close to getting the angle grinder out and leaving the van on axle stands for the week , plus I didn’t fancy heating it up or burning the bush out as it’s right next to the diesel tank .

                                Check out the corrosion .





                                Next job was to remove the bottom ball joint from the wishbone , do you think it would come out ? Nope it was stuck solid in there , despite it only being fitted to the van for last years Mot , lots of hitting the wishbone to try and free the taper .

                                I didn’t fancy using the ball joint splitter as it normally splits the boot , as the joint was good I didn’t want to risk it .

                                Still no movement so I thought sod this I’ll buy a new one , I phone the local motor factors who are normally there until 3pm , no answer despite phoning several times

                                I did think of using an angle grinder with a thin disc to split the wishbone , but I continued to hit it with a lump hammer and in the end it gave up





                                Nice shiny wishbone .





                                Road test complete
