Hi pal great looking van
What drop are the fronts as van I’ve bought was low low but horrible to drive bouncing around everywhere
But coil snapped gone through tyre
I think last owner has cut them if honest
I don’t know people would suggest. For the drop on the fronts
I have chance to get 60mm but worried it will put me back to that really uncomfortable driving
Any help would be appreciated
Many thanks

60mm? In my opinion, do not go that low. I am on 35mm uprated springs at the front using new standard uprights, and i hate it. I have got a full set of Gaz that is being installed soon, just got to find the ramp time.

Replaced the half melted loom plug to the heater blower resistor as the motor was intermittent And replaced the resistor itself for good measure Sorted

Seat swap from a 2015 Focus Titanium into a Mk2 FTC

[mrtn]

Straight swap?

Straight swap?

No. I had to strip the OEM seat down to the metal frame, then strip the leather seat the same and put the leather onto the OEM frame/base.

Good to know. But what type of difficulty did one have doing this? is the wire harness the same assuming the seats have the same side air bags.

Not easy at all, but very doable if you are determined. It required no welding and no re-wiring. Because I used the same seat frame and base, the same exact wires and connectors were used to reconnect the seats to the system.

Yesterday, i finally fitted the Gaz coilover kit I've had for months!

Good question...

Well i nearly burnt the damn thing...

Besides the negative thoughts, I fitted a EGR blanking plate (self made)
Ohh and I broke down...
Spent the rest of the day chasing my tail...

[Kenton]

Well it would do, because the rolling radius should still be the same.

Cut out 2 plywood panels for the inside, because I had the ply lying around. First one was a exact template in reverse for the second. Sprayed them and the rear door panels with Silver Wheel Paint. Bolted them on with the existing 4 x 10mm threaded holes. Fitted the 4 cargo pockets I had from my old van.
