  • The one we have all been waiting for! The time has finally come to install the So Low Air Ride kit to the T5 camper project. Massive thank you to Transporter HQ / So Low for the great deal on the air ride kit and a massive thank you to Lowdown Transporters for taking time out of their busy schedule to fit the air ride for me. We coupled the So Low air with Airlift Performance 3H management and twin So Low Shhh Silent compressors.

    You were up in my neck of the Woods, which reminds me that I need to Pop over to Wymondham to see an old friend of mine. A very well thought out Air system that you are fitting to the van. The Landy in the background got me interest, as it looks like the body is off the chassis and someone has tucked a set of wheel in the arches. Now going to watch part two.

    • @DanChambersDAC

      Installed well isn't it! The Landy is sat on a Beetle chassis! Thank you for watching.

      Sorry, I forgot it was there tbf 😂 Been an ornament in there for a while. It is a long term project they have on. They have done a series on it on the Dropworks TH-cam channel.

    Just found you and am looking forward to seeing how your workshop comes together, I am disabled and spend all my time in my ManCave building Radio Controlled trucks cars tractors etc. I used to do builds like you are doing with your VW plus my three boys kept me busy doing custom jobs on their cars back in the day. Not sure what area you live in I am in sunny Felixstowe so if close by I would always come and hold a spanner for you lol.

    Loving the content Dan, I’m slowly gathering the bits to do my own, when funds allow, trying to follow this to work out the best places to fit everything underneath. It’s a bit of a mind bender following Chris because the footage is all reversed😵‍💫

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cheers bud, Yeah I forgot to check his camera and what way it was 🤦‍♂️ You will have room. Chris does explain the locations.

      Sick isn't it! It's a build for a customer but speak to Jack @dropworks as they could build you one.

  • @davidramplin5291
    @davidramplin5291 ปีที่แล้ว

    I, what do you use as your standard ride Height? I'm trying to get mine to a sensible low on air whilst driving. I'm accuair so if you could give a ruff measurement from ground to top of arch I'd be greatful.

    Hi Dan! How much does it cost to buy and fit the So-Low Suspension. I’ve got a SWB T5.1 t32 kombi??? The van looks awesome. Nice job 👌

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi chris, best thing is to drop Chris @lowdown Transporters a message or call as there are many variables. Cheers bud, So worth doing.

  • @bandit911
    @bandit911 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Is this the same van from the first build where you sprayed it with rattle cans? Still looks great if it is, I've been curious how the paint has been holding up through everyday use

    • @garethevison
      @garethevison ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It’s a different van. Would be good to see what the first one looks like now though.

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  ปีที่แล้ว

      No bud different van. That one is still around. I got sent photos of it a few weeks back. It has had some changes made, not stuff I would do.

    • @DanChambersDAC

      I got sent some images a few weeks back. It is still around but has had some other modifications....

    How does it work for selling van on with notching structural parts ?

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you are open about what's been done it shouldn't be a problem. If someone interested in the van if I ever sold it was worried about structural cutting then it definitely isn't the van for them.

    Will this system allow you to level the van when camping?

    • @DanChambersDAC
      @DanChambersDAC  ปีที่แล้ว

      To an extent. You can level off front to rear ok but not much side to side due to the ant roll bars linking the sides.
