I know its a bit off topic but I bought this rear clip for my van I will probably only use the corners from the belt line down. PM me an offer if anyone is interested in the other bit.
The "rave chill out camper" was built by a mate of mine back in the day! The amount of filler lovingly applied to it defies belief. I have seen it pass through a few peoples hands over the years on internet forums its always a project that never seems to progress at all.
My van was lowered by removing some of the springs when I got it :shock: The plan from day one was to return it to stock, I did this then couldn't get it out of the garage! I fitted some second hand ww spindles (£310 delivered) less of a drop than the transporterhaus spindles so I could keep...
This little model is cool its manufactured with my vans registration number, All the models they make are based on actual road going vehicles there are a few early bays in the range I bet some other bays on this site have a mini me too.
A bit of the vans history here :D...
Back end has now been lowered a spline and looks much better for it. Was very nose down with the new spindles now its a tiny bit up!
Bought a good bumper for the rear just need to collect it from Bristol I have another that I was going to use but it needs a bit of work and at the speed I move...
great idea,how about dubs at the castle 2025 :lol:
mines not got much green left,Its got a red drivers door,beige engine lid,white rear hatch,lime green sliding door track you get the idea.
I know its a bit of a joke in the street I live in. It arrived on a recovery truck when I moved in and sat outside for a couple of days the neighbors said thank you when I put it in the garage!
Hi Dave I have fitted the dash you kindly collected for me so some other little jobs have been done...
Small update :D I really wanted stock height but there was no way it could get out of the garage :( I have fitted some ww spindles for a mild drop at least it can leave the garage now.As I said in the last post I have never done anything mechanical in the past so I am well chuffed with my efforts.
Transporterhaus are making them in 2 and 4 inch they posted about them on Facebook a couple of months ago. They have built in caster adjustment and the tubes are raised a bit.
Its the v888 form you need to do this.Just print it off the DVLA site and send it back with a fiver!
I did this it took about a month for it to come back turns out my panel van was owned by a vw main dealer for the first 6 years.

Not cheap but the new transporterhaus beam looks a nice bit of kit.It has built in camber adjustment and the beams are raised as high as possible.Its on the facebook page 2 or 4 inch narrowed,Ball joint and link pin types.
