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..

Long and low budget T5 build IMG_0857

Long and low budget T5 build IMG_0858-1

32mm stainless spacer cut and the brake pipe ect bracket removed

Long and low budget T5 build IMG_0859

Then welded together.

Long and low budget T5 build IMG_0860

And fitted to the strut

Long and low budget T5 build IMG_0861

And then i fired the coilie back on the van

And dropped the bugger through the hub..
