Ok... The following pics aren't intended as a tech/how-to (I'll leave that to the pro's at camper & bus) but they are pretty representative of the good day out we had courtesy of T2d :)

Before - not exactly nose-bleed inducing height ;)

Paul mentions that the buffet will be arriving soon...

But he was telling porkies, and decided to explain how the new-funky spindles & balljoints work

Meanwhile Ballz get's bizzy...

And in no time both the hubs are off!

Then, quick as a flash the first set of replacement arms are on!

Which calls for a bit more loafing about...

So Ballz gets to work putting the spindle on

Nearly there...

And there we have it!

Wheel back on

Turning our attention to the rear...

Rear spring plate before drop

And after a 2-spline tickle

Rear wheel back on

Everything under control down there?

Ballz squirtz some new grease into the beam

Terra firma!

Gratuitous angle shot

Front...

Rear...

Yet before the dust has settled Ballz whips her back up and installs the front tray
DSC01945.jpg


And secures the adjuster at it's highest setting
DSC01946.jpg


She's backed out and Jay (ballbag) takes her for a spin
DSC01951.jpg


After about three hours, Jay returns

The happy bunny!

In all her glory

And just for good measure :)

Thanks again to Paul & everybody at T2d for the grand day out :)
 
Great photos Mike... Thanks all for coming, hope to see you all at the REAL openday in the summer.
 
Sounds like a great day out and some top work too.

Goes to prove how Early Bays ROCK :mrgreen:

Well chuffed for you BB. 8)
 
Looks like you all had a good day.

How much did you drop her by??

Want to try and loose 4 inches in time to get mine into the garage.
 
3.5" drop on stock beam height, for the photoshoot the bus was raised to stock height front and rear, spindles fitted and a 2 outer spline drop at the rear, see Ballbag stood next to his bus for a hint of how low she really is.....
