I'm about to embark on exactly the same process and would love to see what you've done.
The Instagram link sadly doesn't work for me though. Any ideas?
I just made my first post above. Looking for a solution to the ramp removal process.
So...... the long and short of it seems to be that you can't remove the ramp and leave the hinge in place? Meaning that the ramp itself must be chopped off?
I'm wondering if a different pivot might be fitted along the chopped bumper to give it structural integrity but.... looking at the mechanic's advice in this thread, I get the idea of the structural integrity afforded by the ramp itself.
Shame as I'd have liked to have hung onto that in case of moving amps/gear around when doing band trips.
I can't see that counting as a modification - my new ride is insured as having WAV body mods already - to answer someone else's question I got decent priced insurance approx £650 via Elephant even though I'm not a wheelchair user - no blue badge.
Then I had to retax it as a standard diesel car. So another £165 for the year.
Already learning tons - just a shame it's so close to Christmas or I'd be out there on the floor already! It's going to have to wait till next week - in the meantime I guess I might take an aged relative out for a spin with her mobiltiy scooter!
