Conversion is perfect, at Easter went Sydney- port MacDonald SA and all the way round the coast via the great ocean road to Wollongong then back to Sydney with the van in tow without an issue , absolutely perfect towing machine except for a few moments under brakes, hence the upgrade. Was looking at a ranger as we intend to go around the block at some stage and LPG availability is not going to cut it.

Rangers have a few problems.
oil pump is one, and that's major in anyone's book.
you have your bus near perfect, why start again.
IF IT'S NOT A NISSAN.
THEN IT'S A COMPROMISE

Installed them last weekend with dimpled and slotted disc's, needs another bleed though. The bolts in my single pot calipers appear identical to the new ones, anyone know why the forums recommend new bolts, I assumed because they were different.

The bolts for the twin piston calipers should be shorter.
