Saulamandetra Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Well I'll be doing this aswell soonish hopefully just gotta fix my welder :) basically the principal seems to be remove the complete rear axel and leafs then where it's bolted and welded underneath them you take it apart and fit it on top of the leafs :D apparently this drops it quite a lot and is still safe so I'll soon be finding out ;) Others say heat the leafs at the end so the weight of the van pushes them straighter instead of being their normal crescent moon shape :) Saul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saulamandetra Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 i hear it drops 100mm is there any way to bring it up or get front springs to even it out Just been watching this awesome american guys version of how to do it all on YouTube it's really good, yeah drops it quite a bit and and can do it even more too without having to pay out the earth :D But on the front instead of buying adjustable coilovers (which cost a lot) I'd get lowering springs, dead cheap, do the same job just a lower firmer ride and should level you out :) Saul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
