narrowed bus beam?
Hey people, i am thinking about building a narrowed beam for my bus and was just wondering what are the benifits of doing it? Will i be able to lower
my bus more?
Thanks, Alex.

depends what wheels you want....
i don't think it's really necessary unless your gonna have big wheels (wide 17s or sumthin).
you can get it plenty low by just welding in adjusters, a lot less work than narrowing!!!!

narrowing the beam will bring the wheels inside the sarches and stop them rubbing on the outside of the arches when you turn, if your going super low
you can cut the arch out that is under the from seats and raise it so the larger wheels will not rub up the top, in effect you r tubbing it, but be
sure to make the area inclosed with sheetmetal, just raise it,
