Hi Rich, Couldn't help but notice the girls were not in this weeks video, Hope all is okay. And as usual another interesting video to have watched, Plus as always it's a Thumbs up from me 👍👍👍👍 Just of interest should you ever come across a stubborn Nut & Bolt that won't undo and if its possible you can always try applying some heat to it with a Blowlamp, As it should help free it up because I've done it many times over the years. You can also try giving the bolt head end a good crack with the lump hammer flat on so not to damage the Hexagon Head of the bolt, this should also help shock the bolt. Either way my friend it's said what you Go through you Grow through, its all a matter of patience and experience. Steve from Manchester.

Hey Steve. Yes it was a little cold and rusty for them this week 😂 but I’m sure they’ll be back on the next vid. We will be doing some bits ready for our next trip away - thanks for thinking of the girls. Those are some good tips, I really need a better blow lamp as the one I have is great for smaller jobs. Love the growth motto, I definitely considered not taking a second attempt at the shocks, but perseverance is key. Take care and thanks as always for the thumbs up and tips.

Class upgrades! Nice new tool too! Plenty of dugger duggers, wangers and shafts to go with it 😂😂

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Ha! I almost cut all of the shafts and wangers out, but left some in for japes.

[@ian_morg]

@@WanderbusAdventures it was nearly like that naughty episode of Rainbow at one point 😂😂

[@WanderbusAdventures]

😂

[@kevingalloway9338]

Nothing takes 15 minutes in the van build lol…brilliant job buddy

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Ha, you know it Kev. Took it as a semi/optimistic challenge, but you're right. When will I learn 😂

[@ian_morg]

You need to get some Greg Virgoe T-shirts after that. It’ll only take half an hour 😂😂

[@WanderbusAdventures]

@@ian_morg ha yes!

[@DudleyDellTelly]

Love my Dugga-dugga. 'tis a proper weapon just like yours.

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Was worried it would be a poor purchase, but now feel the same! What a tool it is. Will seek other opportunities for Dugga-Dugga activities i'm sure 😊

[@TheMattK2011]

Thumbs Up just for the Jugga Jugga 😂👍

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Thanks for the support 😂 needed it as you could tell. 😊

[@donbrown8001]

It’s brilliant when you can get a new tool by justifying it with an important job👍 I’ve just managed to justify myself a palm router which may lead to a cnc machine 👍👍 great video as usual 🎉

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Thank you 😊 A palm router is an excellent investment, we’ve a friend that makes river tables and he’s like a wizard with it. Let if it morphs into a CNC, we’ve many an idea 😂

[@katrinagray7733]

Super job Rich. Well done. Glad you got some new tools too 😂

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Thank you, anything to get a new tool.

[@Dirt-Diggler]

Definitely dampers, the spring is the shock absorber 👍 Having said that I still call them shocks 😂 No more van rocking 🤔 😪

[@WanderbusAdventures]

For sure, as you can see we do the same 😊. I reckon less rocking, but that drivers side front was well past its best I reckon.

[@Bugs1953]

Well done good job.

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Thank you 😊

[@janlayzell2995]

We just had new shocks put on our camper van this week as well, must be that time if year. Love the light bar !

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Hehe. It must be 😊. Hopefully it made a bit of a difference Jan. We are pleased with the little lightbar, and thought it a neat alternative to spots and strobes. We do need to get out on a trip to test it though 🤔

[@janlayzell2995]

@WanderbusAdventures will let you know about shocks, we leave these chilly waters for Spain tomorrow for 12 weeks, can't wait !!

[@WanderbusAdventures]

@janlayzell2995 ah hope you have the best time.

[@vidarisaksen9379]

you should consider and get an induction heater for bolts and nuts, they don't cost a fortune and simplify disassembly a lot, in addition, an air chisel for and drive out bolts can also be a good investment, both can be rented. if you put the nut on the bolt almost all the way in before using the hammer you won't damage the threads air chisel kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5q1dpKIna-hfs0si=xvx6FuTPQhxcC-h_ induction heater kzbin.infoww9kmVtXToc?si=GII4126rba6rOBd0

[@WanderbusAdventures]

Thanks so much for sharing this, had never heard of the induction heater before but have tried a torch in the past. Really interesting. Thanks for thinking of us.
