I’ve got the corrosion above the sliding door track cleaned up the best I can. From this To this Then heated the area up with a heat gun to reduce the chance of moisture getting trapped in there. I then ran a piece of cord behind the seal to lift its lip Then I built up layers of rust paint with a brush making sure plenty was flowing into the gap Hopefully that should hold beck the corrosion and keep the weather out for the time being. Next bit to sort it the underside of that steel pressing and the sliding door track and surrounding area. Not sure when I’ll be able to get started on that though as we’re forcast bad weather for the next seven days☹️
Para, you've sure had some Marmitee luck matey. Read the last 20 or so pages since I asked about the grey paint on your gearbox and never answered you. Was wondering about your process when painting and about what products you use. If I remember your pics went awol when you did the gearbox.
I have found that a Dremel using the right attachment can get into most hard to reach places. It has proved invaluable in our recent endeavours with the cutting blades being so thin. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It hasent rained today and it’s been sunny enough to dry the van out So the covers gone on Thanks bern
Here you go, have a look at this. Gearbox too so you can bench run it and clean and paint it and put it in. Then you could use it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/original...509627?hash=item3f98eb7dbb:g:y98AAOSwNFVayg4H
