    Yes sorry Nugsy, they are on my bus and I highly recommend them. The T’Haus spindles coupled with the coil overs drives so nicely. I did see a set come up on FB marketplace the other day, will try and dig out a link

    T’Haus Dropped Spindles

    Hi all, I’ve managed to acquire a set of Transporterhaus drum dropped spindles with the reversed locked ball joints, about to install them however in some of the photos I’ve seen online a believe they require washers under the ball joint locking nuts? Does anyone know the size/spec of the...

    Parts Wanted Early Bay Lowering

    Hi all, looking to drop my bus and just thought I’d see if anyone on here has any kit before I remortgage my house! I’m after a 4” narrowed beam.
