Just wondering the benefit of the wobble blocks mate? I guess there’s slight movement if you haven’t poly bushed your leaf spring?

@Cabbs
Yeah it very much dulls down the axle movement you get when cornering etc after lowering. Don’t really want to poly bush as want some flex.

Really must do a build thread for my van, I’ve done that much to it.

Received my van on Wednesday. Absolutely love it.
Sounds backwards but I act fitted a bulkhead as I will be using her for work.
Team heko wind deflectors turned up, so did my rear bumper protector, and black badges.
Spent the day sound deadening and carpeting today but good progress so far. Top tint should be done tomorrow ImageImage

Finally got round to putting the winters on today. I had a set of 12mm spacers to try as well. I thought they’d be ok with the winters but they fit like a glove behind the Sportlines as well

I've been working on my growing list.

Today I've stripped out the ply lining, sound deafened it and insulated all sides and back. Waiting for more to be delivered to finish roof.

Then to drill out rounded screws holding the floor in to dreaden that too. Two of six screws stripped. Typical.

Fitted some reflectors in the doors until I can get some light units.

Makes a small difference.

@Mattmsm, Lights look superb, were they easy enough to fit? i.e direct plug and play , how long di it take to fit them?

Hi thanks yes it’s just front bumper off then a few t30s hold them in. They are plug and play the sequential indicator looks mint but couldn’t get that in a pic.I reckon a couple of hours tops to swap them half that if your handy with the spanner’s
