Nice looking bus you got there! Im going with old steelrims to. What kind of rubber do you got on theme and how did you lower it?

 

[OSullivan]

fronts are 175/55/15 and rear 185/65/15, dropped spindles from t2d and adjustable rear.rides really well.you forget its lowered!

Cool, have you narrowed the front? If not, does it rubb at all? Are you running stock dampers on it?

 

[OSullivan]

not narrowed at all, it has split bus 15" wheels which have a different offset i'm told so it appears slighty narrower.doesn't rub at all.gas shocks from t2d.this is the height the dropped spindles gave me.no adjusters.i was well chuffed with the look.

Nice! I agree, the stands look great! Ar those shocks shorter than original?

I cant find a price for the spindels on their sait, how much did it coast total with choks, spindels and rear adjusters?

Thanks for all your answers! Really dig your stands and whant to get something similar with good comfort and all.

Just caught up with this thread.

Looks like you have managed to do some very nice and subtle work on the bus 8)

Looking very nice indeed (plus love the temporary fix on the hatch card - very nice

 

[OSullivan]

Thanks for the comments,Trying not to overdo it at the mo.Next dilema will be to do shiny or original(ish)paint!Don't want the bus to rot away in our hot climate
