Hi all,
I'm currently out in Greece and one of the front shocks has gone, leaking and just about seized making me almost stranded!
The locals here haven't got experience on this kind of thing and tell me they want to take out the dash to get to the shocks on my HYMER B594....Surely not?!!??
Does anyone know how to access the shocks. Can I get to them from inside the cab, by removing the plinth on the dashboard, or do I have to remove the cupboards housing the Elektroblock etc.?
Also, it's a 3400kg Fiat Ducato Hymer 1995 - Are the shocks standard or an uprated version for this motorhome?
I am working flat out at the moment otherwise, of course I would have made more investigations myself, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you have no joy with finding out anything, contact Peter Hambilton and i am sure he will give you some good advise, he is the bee's knees when it comes to Hymers.
Sad to say, if you can't see the top of the strut mounting under the bonnet, then I can't think of another way. Although I would have thought that there may be an access hatch somewhere in the dash area. Standard commercial shockers will do the trick. God liuck. H
