Recommended Posts

Well its now a Van! got all the floor sorted out over the weekend, I have done this one in 1/2" ply so its a good bit stronger than the one in the SR!

Covered it in bus flooring because its nice and tough, non slip and easy to clean!

I also put a back board in too to stop things sliding into the front!!

I added braces from the seat back mounting points to the board too also so they can be used to strap things to! Then installed the alarm and dogwoofer combo! in the back!

Well after running this all winter, Now the SR is all up and running again I thought Id give this some much needed TLC seen as the brakes where sticking on the fronts and I knew the rears where getting very low. So I got it on the ramp and pulled all the wheels off!

So I replaced the rears! then onto the fronts



The Callipers on the front where seized up when I got the car I freed them off but it did't last long and also the discs that where on the car where too small for the callipers for some reason! But I had some very good 98 spec glanza callipers and carriers so I ordered some new glanza discs and pads. The first set of discs I was sent where bigger than the ones that came off but still too small for the glanza callipers!
