The steering system on my SWB mav is cactus. pump last week, now the box is to be replaced. I was wanting to put the GU sterring box on due to it being stronger. Is there any specific Gu model, petrol/ diesel I need to look out for?

Mine: SWB '88 Mav, TB42-petrol.
Thanks

The clutch in my Mav appears to be on its way out. Can't seem to adjust it to fix the problem. What replacement clutch's do people put in.
Specs: '88 Mav SWB, TB42 petrol.
Currently on 31x10.5 MTr's - Next week, 36x12.5 Centerpedes for bush so clutch will not handle these of playing up on 31's

Changing the oil will wix the problem?

Mine has the same crappy clutch after sitting in a few 'bog holes' (dams) lately

my ac pump/ compressor just imploded also - thanks to willowglen bog hole.

ho hard is it to convert the pump, when i replace it to pump air to a tank rather tan use it as an ac pump? Is there a different pump that I should look for instead?

I don't use the AC much, so don't mind loosing it ...

I just looked under my bonnet for No's for insurance and the left mount caught my eye. The top is sittibg about an inch clear of the bottom. Mines a 88 mav petrol. Must be the season for bustin these Drive side looks suss too

Should i replace with new genuine ($190 ea) then drill chassie or just ...

I ru 31 10.5's on 15x8's. Ive never rubbed the flares(on the rubber) but regularly rub the body with the inside of the tyre in the wheel arch

Before we replaced our rear tank we raised ours by mounting it onto the top of the rear crossmember at the back of the tank, front bolts remained bolted in the original location.

This aounds like the best solution so far. O bvioulsy the height from the tank mounts to the top of the tank are the ...

Sonds like the replacement tank is a better idea. I will drop the std tank this weekend and have a look at it still.

Its straight petrol - TB42

I have lifted the body 50mm. The rear quarters have been cut off. The next is to lift the fuel tank. Its a standard tank. I want to take it up the 50mm into the lift. What is involved in the lift as the mounts (i think) are pressed as part of the tank? Anyone lifted their standard tank?
Thanks
