of the van mate, yeah...

don't matter now as i thought you hadn't taken any yet, i'm at work so i'm lucky i've got internet at the mo...

looks good mate, are you using the -60mm focus springs and cups too?

by **Rumble bee** » Wed Nov 23, 2011 9:30 pm

-40mm focus springs, vans dropped about 60mm due to the weight of the van.

by **Kent Discos** » Wed Nov 23, 2011 9:50 pm

looks spot on, especially with the weight your carrying as mine may be pretty similar...

Looking good.

Looking good & low.

Chris, how much weight do you carry to make it drop 20mm (and you are a gas engineer...)? Either that or the spring rate is a bit soft.

So how does that now compare to the rear height?

nice any chance of a side view chris

Took me rear axle off today and dropped it off at the local welders to put some plates on - £25 - bargain, i will get it back tomorrow so i'll fit it and do some pics, the rear of the van was 30" from floor to wheel arch, so lets see what it is with the axle flipped ?

Then Focus RS front springs on the front next - 27.5" on the front from floor to wheelarch, so i'll measure what drop the RS springs give me aswell.

cheers

Andy

Just an axle flip will lower the rear tooo much.You need to fit adjustable spring mount shackles as well.

I was thinking of rising mine.

anyone had a look at the coilys (ebay link above) yet? :lol:

by **Rumble bee** » Sat Nov 26, 2011 4:28 pm

The focus and connect strut legs are a different fit as it goes into the hub carrier so coilovers wont fit in. But maybe the focus hub carrier will fit the connect....
