| Back to the german side of life guys and gals.. This asshole is back!! Picked this looooong bugger up sunday night from over the bridge.. '04 plate 1.9 tdi lwb. 20 inches rangerover rims just refurbed, phat side bars with steps and colour coded.. Thats about it lol...     I tad on the high side of life though.. So first things first.. Set of coilovers ordered monday morning 24hr postage.. So booked tuesday off work  And by Jo the buggers turned up  So thought it would be rude not to fit them   Also first thing this morning i won a full width rock and roll bed so whip down to Barnstaple and collected it.. After the van was lowered     Thats it for now geezzzers!!

| I decided that the coilies wound down just wasnt enough so... I've hub modded the fecker as well.. Plenty of measuring and trail fitting then i cut some stainless tubing to sleeve the coilies..   32mm stainless spacer cut and the brake pipe ect bracket removed  Then welded together.  And fitted to the strut  And then i fired the coilie back on the van  And dropped the bugger through the hub..  | |
