Hi Mike, I renewed my split charging setup not too long ago. Not a difficult job to tackle if you haven't already talked yourself out of it. Take a look at the below kit as a starting point, with ready terminated connectors, and a relay which I can highly recommend...

Shame about that. Previous owners all seemed happy to hear from me. I understand why they are reluctant to share information, but I think most of us on here would be happy for new owners to get in contact.

I applied for the history of 20 previous owners in 2016. Took a good few weeks but only cost £5. About an inch thick pack came through with all old v5s etc. Best fiver I have spent on the van!

Do you need head exchangers and tubes for these?

Sorry, dont come in here too often! Did you paint them or not?

As an update to this, measured up again with a mate... Wheels are actually 15x5.5 (wasnt measuring between beads) And offset looks like ET25 (although may be slightly different) Centrebore measuring 66.6mm One bump before eBay

I have gone back to steels on my panel van. Up for grabs are a set of BRM 15s. I think they are 15x6J et35 - but my measurements could be wrong, and nothing stamped on rear of rim. They have some pretty harsh corrosion to the polished areas as pictured, definitely in need of a refurb...

Couldn't find anything this side of the pond... An alternative for anyone else looking. http://www.brick-yard.co.uk/forum/home-made-vw-centre-caps-for-merc-steels_topic84547.html

Anybody know of anything similar to this here in the UK. http://www.van-cafe.com/mefro-center-cap-p1580 I'm looking for something to tidy up the centre of a steel on a crossover running mercedes steels...

Never seen that! Makes you wonder what a vans history is worth though.

Stumbled across this today and it got me thinking. Has anybody restored a van from this condition before...

I have the same problem. Can't help with a solution but can say you are not alone.

Yes mate RHD offside part is the worst one. I definitely have the early steering box, so if that's the case, suppose i will have to wait for the correct one

Thanks for that, much appreciated chaps. I was worried about buying these from a 75 but looks like i shouldn't have any issues with them?

My mistake sorry, should have said offside. Pm sent for pictures.

Mine is RHD... I assumed they would have been the same!? What is the difference?

At some point my van has had a late door put on as a replacement. Looking to buy an early door to swap over. 1972 panel van crossover. Closer to the northeast for pickup preferred, anything considered. Thanks, Marty.

Hi, I will take the seals thanks... Pm sent

Looking at a picture of the ones for sale, I cant tell the difference. Don't want to offer them up and the dimensions be out though?

Hello, I am looking at replacing the front chassis legs on my van soon. Are there any differences between early and late? I have a 72 crossover, just to complicate the matter. Any help much appreciated. Marty
