Drop spindles up front. Straight axle kit in the back. You could go narrowed (adjustable) beam if you want the tucked look or if you want to run wider wheels.

Very easy to do, but your bus looks sweet SHSC!

I have dropped spindles, type 3 trans and axles, and straight axle kit for rear end. I am debating whether I am putting it in or not.

Marty,
Ever talk to Mike Gordon, he could advise you.

Hi Martin, I got your email this morning and replied to it.

Droped spindles are nice but there is no adjustability, If your not happy with the height you can't raise or lower it. The Adjustable beams are nice but do take a little longer to install , I think that pay's off when you want to go on a long road trip and need extra ground clearance (going camping down dirt roads).

Either way I can help you with any parts you may need.
Geoff.
