TYPE 2

Bay window bus one day lowering service.

(This service is the cheapest way if you want to lower your bus anything from 2 to 6 inches).

 

Over the last 21 years experience of air-cooled vw's I am offering a refined lowering service that cannot be beaten by price anywhere. 

My method is to modify your front axle without removing it and set the ride height accurately without the axle having to be removed.

This eliminates the cost of adjusters but please be certain of your desired ride height as when its set the beam cannot be easily adjusted again. Please be aware if you think you will need to raise and lower your van yourself then I suggest you install an adjuster kit prices are listed below.

Using the same basic principle as you would when running adjusters by turning the internal torsion leave block within the front axle until the desired height is archived, but once ride height is set we weld the block back into place rather than using a serrated clamp/beam adjuster. Of course should you wish for some adjustment beam adjusters can be fitted for a further £100.00


The rear end is lowered by turning the rear spring plates on the spines until the desired height is achieved. For very very low vans the spring plates will need to be machined this will also cost additional fee.


The drive in drive out basic price is £300 inc vat which covers the lowering of the front and rear, also tracking.


I recommend the use of gas shocks on the front end for  v low vans, or Gaz adjustable are by far the best these can be ordered to suet your vans ride height perfectly.

 

If you wish to go more than a couple of inches lower than standard I would suggest that the standard tyres are changed for some with a lower profile/side wall to obtain better tyre to arch clearance. This will give you that classic cal look stance these can be supplied and fitted by Me and is worth discussing in advance when booking in for the work. I have many pictures of past buses lowered in this way and you can choose your desired ride height when you arrive.
