Amazing how the little things can be overlooked and that could become a major drama. when you retire or leave the van or RV it makes sense to turn the water pump off.

I am just wondering If anybody knows of a stand alone unit that you could fit in your windscreen to perform this function. I was thinking maybe something like a...

This is not a axle under spring conversion simply a rotation of the drop axle to achieve a better ride height . The chassis company were Melbourne based but ha...
