I had a driveable bus this morning.....

[blondiedread]

Started the weekend with high hopes, get the beam off, mend a little hole in it and fit the adjusters.....no worries
Or so I thought..........

Oh well, I did make a pretty cool thing so I can get the bus out of the shop sans front wheels ready for work tomorrow

New beam then?
Bet you need that like a hole in the head :x

Weighed up my options, I could repair it but it wouldn't last forever, so I've decided to get a good used one and paint and waxoil it to death.
Megabug have a rust free one for a LHD for 250quid.
Took the opportunity to do a repair in the wheelarch while the access is good, so still good progress this weekend 8)

Narrow is not really my thing, how low can I go with stock width?

Fit end plates and keep it standard width,no more rotten towers
