    Is it a Le Mans start?

    I do remember having to clearance the shock tower about an 1″ and box it in to make the trailing arms work.

    I didn’t like how much wider the track width was with the IRS.

    It was a lot of work but I made my own IRS arms out of HSS tubing and narrowed them about 30mm a side. Pretty much the same as short swing axle length. I also offset the bearing housing up 2″ off-center. Kind of dropped spindle style. Got rid of a lot of camber. I bought some bus to bug short axles and turned about 5/8″ off each end. Bus CV’s

    I got this idea from you guys back in the day, raising transmissions to get away from excessive camber.

    Are you going to have to narrow the IRS swing arms to tuck the wheels and tires under the fenders?

    Got all my shit home in one trip! My friend that loaned me his rig, even rode along so I wouldn’t have a return trip to deal with. I’ll start tearing into the engine next week.

    That’s a good friend!

    Your hubcap game is weak! Haha, looking good Will.

     

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Still a very cool bus.

    I’ve never seen a recess like that on an oval gas tank. Is it a WW thing?

    I bought my house in a suburb of Vancouver 20 years ago for $260k. I remember being freaked out about paying that much! House next door just sold for $1.1 million and they tore it down. 85′ x 85′ lot.

    Safe to say my kids won’t be buying the house across the street.

    That is awesome. My wife and I live across from her parents. It comes in handy when you need a cup of sugar, tools, money, more food, a babysitter…you get the idea. Congrats on home ownership!!! Looks like you have quite the project.

    Your a brave man moving in across from your in-laws! Keep your friends close and enemies closer I guess. 😉
