    I did notice in the video that you didn’t carry out rear ABS wiring harness relocation that you must do when running Lows to avoid the wiring getting chopped in half. Also you need to chop the rear upper bump stop when using Lows as it will bottom out hitting the stops

    terrible idea, who would want to make a van less practical? I have a T.6.1 4motion camper, here in Europe we only see UK vans lowered and it is a laughing matter but i guess for you guys a van is probably a status affirmation tool or something. If you use a van for van things don't lower it, if you want better fast road ability just put some proper Arbs, 17 wheels with proper load rating and enjoy

    • @hudsons_autohaus
      @hudsons_autohaus 2 місяці тому

      It definitely is a uk thing running a low van but personally I love how it looks, that is the main reason for doing it, I have done about 6k miles in it since lowering and it feels mint so far and it’s been all over Europe. Its all personal preference

    Nice work on the van. The price so far is about right for the age and what you've done I think. Getting a tailgate conversion... I'm not sure I'd bother but I guess you are gonna be stood there cleaning your bike etc so a rigid shelter would be good. I think I'd probably get an awning rail for the side door and a canopy perhaps. Keep the vids comin. Nice channel. p.s. If you haven't already, join T6forum for any help, you'd be very welcome

    • @hudsons_autohaus
      @hudsons_autohaus 3 місяці тому

      Thankyou for the comments much appreciated, tailgate is for the fixed cover really as often working on the bike in the back too. I have one of the universal awning rails fitted, forgot to mention that but it can get annoying taking the awning in and out sometimes especially if moving around a lot. T6 forum is a great place, already had lots of help from everyone there

    Suggestion for you - you torqued up your rear damper bolts with the trailing arm in droop, this will put the damper rubbers under undue stress when sat on the wheels. If you re jack up your van, remove rear wheel, jack the trailing arm until you hold the vans weight, then un do the upper and lower damper nuts, and re-torque.
