    will do mate,no probs.
    Mate of mine has just spoke to t2d about a K&L pin beam and spindles on his late bay,after asking me a million questions.told him if he wants low its the only real way to go.
    T2d have been spot on for me over the last couple of years.
    I had some defective beam bolts on a 4 ince beam i bought off ssp a couple of years ago.bolts flew out and the van dropped to the floor,luckily i was only doing about 10 mph.
    Rang puppy to see if he had heard of it and he sent me a brand spanking new beam..i didnt even buy it off him.just said he would get a refund off ssp as he deals with them..proper gent.
    cheers again mate,will keep in touch

    Nice one ash,cheers mate.
    I dont know what to do,all my hydros are pretty much set up now,just need to fit the back rams and fire up really.
    I may just give it a few rides and see what it rides like first.
    I have 2 accumumlators per ram at the front,which should help loads with the ride quality..

    Cheers dude.
    What was the problem with the monroe rear shocks then??

    Ive got a 68/69 irs ce set up on the rear of the split and there aint a great deal of shock space.
    From shock mount to shock mount i have about 8 inches when down.
    Trouble is i fitted all my suspension a couple of years ago and dont really wanna go ripping it all out to fit bags but quite liking the idea of the shocks.
    One problem ive noticed possibly with the front shocks,is that the trailing arms rub the normal size shocks with a 4 inch beam if you dont buy the modified bottom trailing arms (like t2d sell)
    I have these but not convinced that they would clear the width of the air shocks.
    cheers ash

    Hello mate.
    Have you got any furthur with your airide set up??
    Im in the middle of fitting hydraulics to mine and its getting to be more of a pain with people saying the ride quality will be awful unless i ride off the torsion bars and leaves.im not really happy going this way as i just wanted to use it to raise the bus,just for getting over speed bumps and such like.
    Read your post on early bay about the setup you were looking at and think this may be a better way to go for me.
    cheers
