Fantastic!! Only 2 vehicles on my drive waiting to depart.... not quite so impressive :-D

Thanks for the info. Have a part arriving at 9am tomorrow. If it doesn't work it's off to Halfords for a couple of gallons of brake fluid :-D

Bedford and Jeep fully serviced and most of the kit and spares packed and loaded. Will be in Carentan (hopefully) this time next week!!!! 3rd tour....can't wait!. Safe journey to all. Richard.

Thanks for all the useful info so far...much appreciated. What about tracks? How much are rubber tracks (assume i need rubber for the road?) How long do they last and whats the cost? Cheers Richard

Made and fitted rear end of exhaust today. Bit tricky as the Owners manual does not show it very clearly. Totally changes the sound of the engine and the noise in the cab. MW Exhaust by richardpayne986, on Flickr

Well as i had no replies on this i used the very minor illustrations in the owners manual's and worked out the route. Came out pretty good. Totally changes the sound of the Bedford and best of all the noise in the Cab!! MW Exhaust by richardpayne986, on Flickr

I've been considering for some time buying a Universal Carrier. Not having any knowledge of them whatsoever it would be nice to have an insight from someone that knows regarding ownership. For instance the transportation needed to take to shows, read legal tracks availability and cost etc, spares availability. Any other do and dont's, what to look for when buying etc etc. Any info would be very much appreciated. Thanks Richard

I'm looking to fit a copy ZS Oil Filter on my MW (currently has a post war replacement). Does anyone know where i could get the brass? lines and fittings to enable me to install it or is it a question of getting some made up? Thanks Richard

Just wondered what my fellow MW owners are taking in the way of spares to Normandy (apart from the usual Plugs, Points, Condenser, Fan Belt, Rotor Arm, Bulbs and Fuel Pump repair kit? I didnt take much in 2012 but feel i might not be as luckly this year. I did pack a Head Gasket though!! :wow: Thanks Richard

Anyone??

Arrived back today....excellent job and very good price too. Thanks Snort for the lead.

Thanks guy's. As No Signals was the previous owner and it currently purrs like a kitten i will go with his advice.... no flushing and straight SAE 30 oil.

Hi Guys, I urgently need a photo or diagram showing how the rear exhaust section is fitted to the chassis rail on a Bedford MW. I have had an exhaust made up and i need to fabricate a mounting bracket and find it's correct position. Hope someone can help!! Thanks Richard

Hi guys, Just doing me pre France vehicle maintenance. Can someone please advise of the engine oil weight for an MW. Thought i'd seen it on here somewhere but cannot find it. I use the Halfords Classic 20w50 (Green/Cream tin) in the Jeep. Would the same be ok in the Bedford or not?? Thanks Richard

Yes please do. Think it will be a little busier compared to when we bumped into each other in 2012!!
-
Thanks Snort, Just called him...£4 per inch which is a really good price so gonna send them off tomorrow. Least i will be able to see in the dark in France now!! Thanks for your help. Richard

Yes please if different to the guy that has already quoted me...a Lee Appleyard? Cheers Richard

Hi Guys, I have Butler's on my Jeep and the reflectors are really tarnished so the lights are poor. Does anyone have any better ones spare that they would let go or any tips to get them in a better shape? I've neen quoted £120 for re-silvering which seems very expensive to me. Thanks Richard
-
Nice one....thanks.
-
Maybe i'm being a bit thick Duncan ? I have not actually checked i have the parts fitted...just assumed i didnt as i'd experenced a few gushes! Mind you...that was on a very hot Beltring day, 3 hours non stop driving. Richard
-
That's great Dave...thanks. So who does these? Richard
-
Don't think i have any of this set up on my rad and it certainly does spuey out the top on hot days. Do you have a photo of the correct set up please? Thanks Richard
