@ShaunMurray636 ай бұрын
Hello , I don't have any experience with the auto boxes so I don't know if it would be any slower , but these Transits are slow anyway and are ok for 60 mph but at that speed they are noisy. I guess the way to do is have a drive of the one you are looking at and take it from there maybe but as I say they are a slow van anyway .

They're a very sharp looking rig though I wish this had the 10 stud wheels. You can can see they strived to give the cab interior car like comfort levels, much like Japanese trucks do. I imagine those plastics are subject to deterioration in harsh conditions.

I hate rust. Ford D series and Cargos were once a common sight in Australia. I recall them as street sweepers used by my local council in the 1990s. Probably among the last built. I recently came across a derelict heavy three axle example with a box body parked in an industrial area with spider wheels and yellow CAT motor visible when looking under the cab. Some of the final Cargos sold here became very Americanised wirh their engines and running gear.

@@garethlee1644 here will be a isolator switch in the battery box that you turn on with a red short type key . Check that you have or it is turned on then let me know if you are then getting power to the inside of the caravan , if by chance you have already done this check if the battery is flat . If you think it might be flat use the hook up lead to a 230v plug socket and then see if you have power into the caravan , let me know how you get on.

How what year is the bike in the video, and what was the mileage for that much guide wear.

Obviously I can check while I'm inside the engine, but I'd like to minimize the downtime.
