Hi all, Aware I need to swap my horsehoes for adjustable spring plates. Only really looked at Cool Air and T2D. Cool Air offer standard, 1" drop and 2" drop. Was chatting with their online help today and he explained that buying standard means turning splines to get the drop. Prefabricated with...

How did you find out, did it roll in by accident 😀

According to profile, last seen 29th September. As much as we're a friendly bunch on here, I must say since I've come back his enthusiasm in posts has been brilliant

Long shot but are either drum drop spindles. What kind of price are you looking at please (happy to pm)

Not sure I've asked, but did the drum spindles go?

2nd this, had it a few years now. Has zips so you can open cab doors, also has straps at the rear to tighten it, and straps that clip underneath to stop it lifting off.

Sorry to hear you feel that way about your bus. I used mine for 7 years and did loads in it; Euro Disney, numerous shows etc. Then went through some real downs with it following a bodged engine build and ensuing court case. Got sorted 4 years ago, but then moved house, extension, full refurb and...

Can see the pics have been added but only show the 1/4 windows. Are the 3/4 window rubbers new or used and assume glass has no chips/scratches Tempted with the Westy window too if I have to travel to collect, as could use the 1/4 window on the very rear non sliding door side. Need to get brave...

I'm North Warks and interested too as need some quite bespoke work doing around my sunroof opening (matron) Contacted these after getting there details from Practical Classic. Think they are Kidderminster based but as the name suggests they do mobile work too...

Still chasing the dream of Drum spindles. Anyone had any experience with either of these Vintage V-dubs Hand fabricated drum '68-’70 Bay Window 2.5″ Drum Drop Spindle $850 Or Wagonwest 1955-79 Porsche to VW bus hybrid dropped spindles – SERVICE $850

Welcome to the forum and to constant fettling to get it right. Nice looking bus. Drive it as is for a while and make a list. We all have one and it just gets longer 😀

I know it's going off topic, but assume you don't have bellypans. Originally I wanted it under the seat to feed the main heater channels as I switched to j-tubes. The Rusty Lee bed is narrower than my Danbury so the original rear seat heater Vents won't work unless I run them from the original...

Interesting idea putting the heater in there. I was part of a group buy of a Propex gas heater about 9 years back and its still in a box in the garage. I was going to put it under the rear seat as had a danbury set up. Just switched to a Rusty R&R ans it's a bit tight for space, so this looks...

Re the 3/4 windows, what exactly is included ie the opening 1/4 lights and surrounds too, or just the 3/4 glass. Are the rubbers new or used. Ta

Presume 68/69 were drum spindles, any of these still available 4 years later 😀

No worries thanks for your reply/help Don't do facecloth but thanks for the heads up, will get my misses to check

Just realised when I said spacers above, I meant adapters: 5x112 to 5x130 So unless I can figure something out no one else has (which I very very much doubt) it's search for drums spindles or use 20mm adapters on the front. Still miffed I missed those on ebay

Daily is my 2013 Audi A6 Black Edition bought last year. Its only a 2l diesel with posh bits, but great family car with loads of room for 4 and a dog. But also use my 2000 Audi Cabriloet through the summer for local car shows in and around Coventry. Used to use my bus every Friday for work as it...

Not at all at present. Used to do 2-3 shows a year and a couple of holidays. As Matty74 above, moved house, pretty much gutted it, extension built etc, covid hit and the bus sat on the drive (or the neighbours drive due to skips). Finally all sorted and reworking the bus with all the bits I...
