So, I've finally got around to fitting my 4" narrowed Wagenwest beam along with transporterhaus dropped spindles. Mocked it up in the shed before fitting and thought i had the adjusters set at the highest setting, so that i could lower it gradually until it sat right. However, I must have been drinking 'cos I did it the wrong way around and now the bus is super slammed with the arches sitting on the tyres :oops: :lol: :oops:



So, jacked it up again, left the wheels on for added weight, took the shocks off and undid the bolts on the adjusters so that the serrated washers were clear. No movement :evil: So, i added a bit of pressure to each side and they dropped slightly (aboot an inch). Each side seemed to move independently though, not drop together? So, back under the bus and the adjusters have moved but only by about two teeth. Won't budge anymore though :evil: :evil: There is still ample space for them to move but they won't............ :roll:

Don't want to force them incase I bend the bolts and don't want to take it all apart again unless I have too. Any ideas what I can do before I go mental. Having a proper hissy fit now like.

Thats just the job mate. Cheers.

In hindsight I should have searched first but too grumpy at the mo :lol: :lol:
 
If you follow what I did in the linked topic you should be able to get more of a raise, the problem is dialing in the height. I've had to repeat the process of taking everything apart, adjusting and putting it all back together around 4 times now to get the correct height! Think I've got it down to around 40 minutes each time now
