i was thinking about a 4" narrow beam and red9 kit although im not sure if there is an issue with clearance on the shock towers.

i would love to see some pics of your beam in-situ? without the wheel on, if you would be so kind sir?

 

[easy]

Hopefully take some piccies when I get 5 but super busy at the mo :roll: will do it at some point thos as I am hopefully off in the van at the weekend to give it a nice long run 8)

 

[Guest]

no worries, take your time

 

[easy]

Nearly there! Decided against changing adapters so its only a 3.5 inch narrow :wink: looks ace with the big wheels / tyres aswell, not to much but enough me thinks :wink:

Just wish the shocks would turn up :roll: been waiting weeks now, hopefully arriving tomorrow 8) :wink:

Sneeky crap pics, not as low as it will be, but you get the idea 8)

:wink:

:shock: THUNK! (as jaw drops onto desk)

That looks absolutely fookin fabulous! Still can't get over how much it's changed the look of the bus too 8)

Q: Did you need shortened track rods etc? Any clearance issues on full lock?

 

[Guest]

thats really nice easy! 8)

is there good clearance on the shock towers?

 

[easy]

Cheers doods no clearance issues atall, the beam went in better than the stock one! hats off to CE its an ace bit of kit. (will give em a better big up if the adjustable shocks ever turn up!! (Get ya fingers out ya monkeys :wink: )

I had one adjustable track rod already the ither was just changed to a new one 8)

No clearance issues atall thank goodness :wink: everything is coolio!

Will take some piccies this weekend when I give it a good old test 8) Going away tomorrow so if the shocks dont turn up then I will have to put some others n there for the mo. 8)

Looks sick in the metal, makes the van a tocuh on the rude side dare I say

 

[panchocrossover]

looks ace.. ive a 4 inch narrowed fitted to mine,but havent drove it yet. does it make any difference?

 

[easy]

havent driven it yet dude! will do tomorrow as Im off away for the weekend, one thing that is a definate is that the steering is certainly stiffer, but nothing serious

 

[creationblue]

[Airtime]

[Guest]

will it affect turning circle much? sorry about the questions i think i might be getting one myself :twisted:

 

[easy]

Thanks for the comments guys, turning circle seems a little better and no restriction :wink:

The shocks didnt turn up that have been ordered :roll: so the old ones are back on and as long as I take it steady i should be okay (only an inch n half of travel :shock: ) shocks will be hear on Tuesday so its all back apart then :roll: :wink: 8)

Now Poppy has a cheeky rake and I think its a case of less is more :wink: to narrow seems a bit much for bays 8)

 

[easy]

All tried and tested and is like a dream! here are some sneeky pics of her with some very muddy wheels :wink:

sits just right! :wink:

 

[Airtime]

Awesome as hell, dude! 8) 8) 8)
