What a fantastic idea! gotta be a bit careful i would've thought, what happens if you shear off the bastard of all bolts and its stops the van moving?!

Looks like a real community sprit there

I was reading a thread on EarlyBay where a guy with a LateBay was asking why most Earlies are lowered compaired to Lates anc after looking at those pictures, I think he has a point!

Seems the majority of busses there were Lates, which were mostly stock height.

Are you going to lower yours?

i dont know yet ...

i dont fancy the rough ride some lowering causes..

You would be okay with dropped spindles, it's the same suspension geometry, so full movement, but the wheels start off closer to the arch

i think stock is the new lowered...
