    I understand why you built it up on the bench (for video purposes), but I bet getting that belly plate bolted down was a nightmare, as its hard enough doing it on the van.
    All power to you mate.
    I'd also suggest that you go around and double check every nut and bolt for torque.

    • @Iveavan
      @Iveavan  Год назад +2

      Yes, not having the tension of the transverse spring taken off the belly plate whilst fitting it is definitely more awkward. Definitely best off doing it whilst the subframe is in its fixed position upon the van and using two Jack's under each bottom arm to take the tension of the spring in order to fit the bottom plate. I've not included the torque settings within this video (unlike the rear suspension video) as there's so many of them it would of slowed the video down. Cheers matey 😉👌👍👍👍.

      Don't give up hope bud, these van's can be challenging at times, trust me 😉👍. Personally I've not touched the ABS sensors as I've had no issues with those nor the bearings. Probably best to ask on the 'Iveco' forums regarding you're situation as there be someone on there who's actually done what your hoping to do bud 😉👌. I can only give advice upon the jobs that I've actually done upon my van. 😉👍👍👍.

    Easy job, I would have formed some sheet and welded into the same areas that failed. Basically bolstered the weak points, if you go that far it's got to be worth doing.

    • @Iveavan
      @Iveavan  Год назад +1

      Yes, an easy job welding wise bud, a gusset plate would of sufficed but having infilled the cracks with weld and welded over the top of that weld will be stronger then the parent metal that I've welded too. Naturally, when van is sat on the ground, the steering rack gaiter is very close to rubbing the subframe so I didn't want to build out potentially causing more issues, hence no gusset plate, anywhere else I would of fitted one. Cheers matey 😉👌👍👍👍.

      Is his a later model like the mk4 ? Where is it hitting the cab to chassis mount? If so, I know someone who had this problem before, I believe he had to actually unbolt that mount from the chassis to enable to remove and fit that top arm bolt, unfortunately, bud. 👌👍.

    I have front suspension on torsion bars on my 50C14. Which one do you think is better, between yours and mine, and why? Mine has never been serviced before. I am the first one that replaced a pair of ball joints but when warm weather returns, i will have to do a similar restoration job like you did, so i am wondering whether a suspension conversion is justified or not. Thanks in advance!

    • @Iveavan
      @Iveavan  10 месяцев назад

      I think the true test would be upon a drive and compare test, I've never driven the C class chassis one, but both seem to be the suspension choice of yesteryear compared to modern suspension equivalents and agricultural mind you. If I was to retrofit a suspension, I'd probably opt for a SWB Iveco and make it into a 4x4 variant using some sort of heavy duty 4x4 donor vehicle 😉👌👍...

  • @jamesward5721
    @jamesward5721 Год назад +1

    Just my quickish 2c on these as I work on them a lot - when you go look for replacement parts, there's a huge "variation" in costs.. Iveco themself will usually pull your pants down for every component. The bill for parts WILL be eye-watering if you take that route. As will plenty others.
    I kinda knew what the "Variety" of quotes for parts would be - I wanted to give the customer a few options/the best deal. First I rang Iveco direct for a laugh - their version was telephone numbers even before I stopped listening.. Let's Not.. I then rang 2 independent suppliers - it can be a Lottery/What mood they are in.. First rang back with a quote just shy of a grand. Or about half what Iveco wanted. Second didn't ring back so I rang them again to poke them - parts dropped in the yard, everything needed, all German made gear, just shy of 400 quid, tax included. Mint - go for it.
    Shop around, because parts for these vary hugely in price depending where you shop

    • @jamesward5721
      @jamesward5721 Год назад +2

      We're also good at fixing Iveco emission issues - just saying like. I've never worked on one where we were "First" at the party - we always get them after someone else has had a go - pretty much the same as for the rust.. They come in with the passenger footwell littered with "bitsa" stuff... "Erm... can ye refit those bits while you're there.....?" No bother, Pal. 🙂

      @@Iveavan I believe that the metal sleeve is vulcanized onto the rubber, and does not move, therefore when you put load on the arms the rubber will twist, and stay twisted on driving. My thoughts is that the rubber will stay in a stressed position, when not thightent under load.
