Those seats look awesome - nice mod
Nice pics (as usual)

Thanks Andy. The seats are really comfortable, very happy.

Cairngorms walking trip. Bus was great on the journey and the new seats were so comfortable [emoji1690]

Yes it’s the one meant for VW T2 and carries two bikes.

How do the new seats compare heightwise with the originals? Do you sit higher with them?

They are about an inch higher than the old ones.

Not too sure what caused the pulley failure I suppose it could have been a gradual thing. However I did check the valve gaps recently and wonder if rotating the pulley anti clockwise to check the valves may have accidentally loosened the nut. When I took it off to check why the belt was loose, it felt tight though. Not really tight but deffo not loose.
Any way gave the OG pulley a lick of paint to freshen it up.


Cracked pulley


Old one painted


Now installed

A crack like that seems a bit troubling. Immaculate engine bay for a regularly used van!!

Thanks I like to keep it clean!

Fingers crossed [emoji1696] the OG pulley will be ok.

Well done for getting out and about. It's a grand part of the country, but don't tell anyone.....

Took the old bus out for a short run. I thoroughly rinsed the underside afterwards to wash any salt off. It’s been really mild weather just recently. [emoji41]
