Under The Van

hi there
I was looking under my van and noticed what looks like 2bottle cleaners with pipes coming out of it
looks like it is made of alloy. Could it be some kind of radiator (it is in the middle of the van).

Sorry but having problem downloading a photo.

 

Hi, could be a transmission oil cooler, or maybe something to do with aircon,(if fitted)
Cheers, Dave

 

I spend most of my time under my van

 

Middle as in side to side or between axles.

 

it could be a diesel cooler... mine is around middle just behind the diesel tank.

its middle as in side to side and middle between axles

 

If you didn't drink so much you would be able to climb the step and get INTO your van ! ..........maybe......... Just guessing.

 

Something like this..

 

That looks like mine!

 

Thanks all it sounds like it could be a cooler.

 

Hi Andy that's it exactly! Thanks

 

what me drink never

 

Lol... It a transit if I remember correctly...
While I'm here have you done the rear discs on yours assuming yours is rear disc...? ?

 

That's the mangle.

Later versions had a twin - tub, very swish!

 

it does rather look like one now you come to mention it...
cant afford the later version so don't know what it looks like.. you will have to post a picture

 

Not needed yet, but it looks like calipers off, half shafts out and a hub off job to me!

 

thanks Jon, got the bits today and had a look, it appears to be as you say and the abs ring has to come off to access the bolts that hold disc and hub together ... heard it can be a pig ,that's why I asked if you had done it..
still need a 65mm socket, when I get that ill have a go..
thanks for reply
