Nothing short of truly inspirational - keep at it!

Hi Uwe - its not a big drop so I think they will be the "semi", I bought them from Frank at BAT Trade a long time ago and these wheels were his recommendation based on the Iveco - I hope he hasnt made a mistake?!? I will make a "test fitting" to make sure the wheels fit over the ...

This company is close to me, they have a good reputation for plastic tanks, if this helps?

Tek Tanks

Hi Rob - good to hear from you! Sureterm direct - £340 fully comp, glass cover, contents cover to £2k, 365 days European cover, no limit on trip duration, didnt give a monkeys about engine size, they did want an immobiliser on it though, it is limited to 5000miles although they will add more for ext...

Uwe, the wheels I have are 11x20s, sorry - I think I must have been having a bad day when I looked at them before! Tyre choice is open at the moment so any advice is appreciated, ideally I want something that gives good highway grip, especially when the cold comes and acceptable offroad grip, heres ...

Thanks Henry! Yes, thats the company - after a little research I think they are very nice but sadly they are too expensive for me Uwe - the insurance market here for Wohnmobiles is to small for the companies to be interested in, if a motorhome fits into a nice easy definition then its not so bad; 1)...

it took almost 2 days of non-stop telephone calls but I have found much cheaper insurance :) It looks like we will use the prison box to get the Iveco its "motorhome" registration - because the box has some problems it will give me the chance to learn more about repairing composite panels ...

Yes - thanks, its a bit more tricky - I will try to explain our bizarre system; If I keep the 110 as an LKW then I must keep a tacho, I can however get "private LKW insurance" (still expensive) I am then limited to 56mph and only 2 lanes on the motorway, The truck will have to take an LKW ...

hmm, my problem here is that only 1 company will do it...

Will German companies only insure German registered trucks?

€150???? €1200 in England!! Im sure there was an EU ruling about being able to get insurance from other countries...

we call this situation "rip off Britain"

how much does a 50mm thick box cost over there out of interest? something like 5000x2000x2300mm - Ive seen some prices that seem to be a lot of Euros!

I will check the wheels this evening Uwe - I cant remember what the seiz is at the moment :ninja: its been a busy weekend, several obstacles have shown themselves; The prisonerbox came, its a good size, its well made but of course the windows and doors are in the "wrong place" for me and i...

ahh, I think the height will come to 3.7m with a 2.1m high box on top, I was hoping to fit bigger diameter single wheels to bring 100km/h cruising RPMs lower.... hmmm is it possible to remove the intermediate chassis rails and bolt the bed to the main chassis rails to save 10cm or is it not worth th...

Heres another question - how tall is too tall?

Hi Uwe, I had a bit of a testing session at the weekend http://i1263.photobucket.com/albums/ii623/dollythelw/Magirus/TwistOSR.jpg it wasnt too good until I removed these bolts, which were binding before the main springs at the front of the bed had moved at all http://i1263.photobucket.com/albums/ii6...

Good afternoon Firstly I must apologise for my total absence of German language skills :ninja: Ive tried searching but the combination of a lack of language and the devestating effect web translations programs have upon meanings and syntax has left me clueless. I have an ex-BW driving school 110-17A...

ok, that gives me a valuable head start, it would seem the timer circuit to shut-down the main relay isnt working, there's is no beeping at all - that shouldnt be so hard to fix,

did the kill switch originally shut the main relay or just kill the motor?

sorry to be such a pain in the ass

vielen Danke Kami! Uwe - ahh thankyou! That makes sense now, for some reason the ignition switch does not shut the engine down, I must use the exhaust brake to do this - Philipp from PADH said this was normal for 110-17 ?!?! there is also a non-standard switch on the dashboard that say "Not Aus...

Thanks guys :D Dont worry Wilmaa Im not under the illusion that an extra locker can get you anywhere but I appreciate the advice :) I will look for some batteries to fit in, the Nato square type are not so easy to find here Uwe - thankyou, do you know if Felix made a thread or website for his conver...

well I got a chance to crawl around under the truck at the weekend and the diff casting is the same for front and rear, the only difference is a "press in" cap where the difflock actuator should locate in the front... so, in theory it should just be a case of getting a difflock actuator an...

I race proto class in Russian Trophy raids and have done for the past 5 years, if the race car breaks it will do it in some very unpleasant places :cold: having the capacity to get the Maggie close enough to deploy an ATV and some spare parts would be very handy. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-...

Thanks Wilmaa :cool: I was trying to be polite but sadly both google and I are pretty limited! I have just bought an Iveco Magirus 110-17AW DOKA and I need to track down a complete parts list and possibly even a service manual for it. We take regular trips to Russia and I really want to put a lockin...

Hallo, bitte entschuldigen Sie meine deutsche Sprache, bin ich mit zur Verwendung von Google zu übersetzen. Ich suche für eine Stückliste für ein Iveco Magirus 110-17AW. Ich habe die DOKA Modell. Wer weiß, wenn die Differenz zurück von einem M168 FAL die Vorderseite eines 110-17AW passen würde? Ich ...
