Fitting Red9 running gear

Post by Karmann70 »

I am looking to install Red9 front and rear suspension to my 65 Microbus. Is there anyone on this forum who has done this and can offer suggestions and do's and dont's ?. Any help, suggestions or comments would be much appreciated.

Thank's for your help. Already have the gear from Das resto and ready to fit it. Was looking for comments from someone else who may have fitted it other than Das resto for any alternative comments, good, bad or just helpful.

True, a call to Al or Steve will be best.

fitting a front end is pretty easy just a bolt on unit its getting it passed if your not in Qld is the hard bit.

Mark Poole in Edwardstown would be worth calling. MP Motorsport

I think he may have done this install before and has engineering contacts.
