Posts: 4 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Re: Modded Uylsse to look like a euro van OMG! That is fantastic mate. Ha my mate as a VW type 5 just spent a bomb on springs. lol. Do you think I will be able to fit more than one on each spring? say bring two or three coils closer? maybe every other one or something? it would be only like having stiffened suspension, wouldn’t it? I’m thinking of having the front lower than the back, kind of an old skool hot rod look, I am 42 years old! Maybe get some leaf spring risers if it has rear leaf springs? or what ever you suggest. I’m after some lake pipe style side pipes as well, but again a bit puzzled on where I would get them from, or how I would fit them, to actually both work and make the engine sound beefy, all on a budget! Paints my game mate, I might have the ideas on the other stuff, but am clueless to the workings of it, that in mind if I did want to tweek the performance, I’m presuming with the exhausts a performance air filter would sort this would it? bearing in mind the bus has done a steady 215,000 miles! Cheers for all of your help - in advance
