I like it but if there is a serious engine problem it will be dangerous.

Place the ladder on the left side next to the wheel, and the bike holder only on the door

Hi guys!

As I wrote some time ago, I'm not really happy with my suspension. Especially for long trips with a lot of weight in the bus, my tyres are too much scraping in the wheelarches. So I thought a lot about what will be the best solution. For the 2018 saison this will be my choice...

Coilover-Shocks from GAZ


I order them directly in UK. It was a perfect delivery!

Fot the rear suspension I've install monroe-airshocks. I use some braided hoses from null-bar.de.



To raise and lower the back I install a compressor under the back seat. I made a special box out of aluminium for all the electric stuff.




And finally in the bus…




Special made cover for the box...


And also in the bus...


The monroe airshocks with the braided hoses.


Yesterday I did the first test drive. I've to say that the bus now drives much smoother. We will see if it's still fine at the end of the saison!

Some pics from the special made control-panel will follow...

Best regards

More updates guys!

Last year I bought this cool box for a few swiss franks.



After a few month in the corner of my garage, I start with the restauration from the cool box. Now the box fits nice to the bus…


In front of the bus…

And more updates! :lol:

I had also the problem with my bike-carrier. I had no chance to put my engine-hood away if the bike-carrier is on the bus. So this is my solution.


Works just fine! 8)
