Title: bipper
Post by: combat1 on April 07, 2016, 08:05:28 pm: Does anyone know if a 350 upright tank will fit behind the bulkhead in a bipper.
Weight no problem just wondering about size. Thanks.

I wondered what the outcome of your earlier post was regarding the springs. Where did you source them from?

Post by: Slash on April 09, 2016, 06:34:22 pm: Their number is 01763 274909,they are based in Buntingford ,Herts,I did have to buy a bipper spring coil to send to them to make a reinforced copy of as I couldn't take one from the van as it was in use but would happily send it to someone at a cost but am sure they have it on their system now as they told me they never made one before,it cost me around £250 to get them both made but money well spent.

Post by: Slash on April 10, 2016, 09:05:10 am: I had a vivaro before with a 650 tank but find 350 is more than enough for a full days work,parking is no longer an issue, great little vans every thing I need for window cleaning fits in nice and compact,as Tony the tiger used to say ................
They're Grrrreeeaaaattttttt ;D
