Thanks Scott!

I found some needle bearings too. Did you order some flipped spindles?

Flipped spindles have arrived! Sweet that you found needle bearings, now I just need some time to get the cash together for a beam. I'll be in touch once I do Ross.

Again, your bus looks so fucking cool 😎

How's the ride?

Nice! They took a while for mine to get here so good going.

The front rides beautifully, especially considering how low it is. Doesn't bottom out, soaks up big bumps and pot holes very well. I'm so happy and surprised at how well it's turned out. I still want to get koni ajustables for the front to see what difference it makes. The back Is a differnt story. I need to notch the chassis as it's bottoming out. The car has a slight rake which I want to level but I can't do it until I notch. Hopefully I'll get this done in Feb.

Are you fitting your spindles? I look forward to hearing how yours rides Scott!

Sounds good, you must be really happy with it.

I think I'll wait to fit mine until I can get a new beam from you, seems silly to fit them to this beam only to pull them off again once the new one's in.

Yes that makes sense. I did the similar thing by getting all the parts together then assembling them in one go. Are you doing the work yourself?

Yep I'm going to give it a go, once we move house and I have a decent garage.
I've never worked on the front end before so it should be interesting!

I hope so!

Check out melburgluft.com lots of cool vw's and some nice blokes too. It'd be a good way to advertise too, they love their narrowed beams 😎

You can just go to the site and put in a request to join, I'll vouch for you. I don't think there'll be a problem, especially since your bus is just the style they like 🙂
They have monthly meets too that you can just go along to and have a chat.

Hi Scott.

I just tried to contact administrator on admin@melburgluft.com but it seems the email bounced back. Any idea who to email?

My mistake Ross, sorry, things have changed a little since I have been on there. The fellas prefer it if you go along to their monthly meet first and just have a chat. There's one on this Saturday if you can make it. Wish I was down there and able to get along to these myself 🙂
