Bienvenue à Delica Canada
We do have a few Quebecois members and even one or two French but typically Anglais is the language used.
Still, good to have you on board, Tony and I suppose this could be regarded as a learning opportunity.
Interested in your project, have you thought of posting a thread in "Member Rides"?

Tony,
Bienvenue au forum.
Si vous voulez que j'aide traduire n'hésitez pas à m'envoyer un message.
J'adore l'architecture... les maisons en pierre... il n'y en a pas assez ici au Canada, ils font presque tout en bois.
Même s'il y a de la roche partout.
Ils aiment avoir des postes de pompiers partout au Canada.

Tony,
Welcome to the forum.
If you would like me to help translate, don't hesitate to send me a PM.
I love the architecture... houses made of stone... there aren't enough here in Canada, they make almost everything out of wood.
Even though there are rocks everywhere.
They like having fire stations everywhere in Canada.
Patrice.

Patrice,
thank you for your proposition,
there are many technical terms that I don't know, so your help is welcome!
I live in a farm with very thick stone wall (1m) and I would like a wood house ...
we are never satisfied!

the L300 is a very good mini truck, we used it in difficult conditions and it was always a very good companion.
Here are some pictures of the amenagement, I really regret that this type of vehicle no longer exists!
but we have a lot of thing to do with our toy ... still some nice project of travel.

Hi there from Autriche,

And a coffee at least, or a place to camp, whatever.

yesterday I put 4 wheel spacer of 3cm (1,1811inch) on our donkey...
it's a really good idea because the wheel are now in the good place (more natural position)
the wheel spacer are in aluminium, monobloc and good quality for 120€ in italia.

Hi
had the same on my old van, absolutely no problems but better looks and more stability in bends. The only issue I had: a rumbling noise after a while, with all wheel nuts tightened correctly. It turned out that the (hidden) nuts which hold the spacer to the hub were coming loose - so be sure to double check if there is any unusual noise when going round corners ...

thanks Andy,
I'm a a little paranoid with this car because it's the motorhome of my little family...
you're right, this detail must be controlled for being safe.
after a test in a mud playground I can say that we have more stability in bends and when the road is inclined.
sorry for my english...

you can watch a little film of the tracks of Montenegro :

Your video shows a great variety of roads and terrain. Hopefully it took more than 1 day to go all those places!!
