Post by: Kevin Wood on 07 February 2012, 12:18:45: I wonder how much camber there is on those back wheels?

Post by: feeutfo on 07 February 2012, 23:24:08: I love the creativity of modifying personally. But it has to IMPROVE the original design. Where's the sense in modifying to make something worse?

...actually no, scratch that. Where's the sense <full stop> !

It's their car, if they like it - good luck to them. But I'm afraid from a practical sense, as Chris says...why make it much worse?
I've never understood the lowering thing, I think we need an opposite, an Omega version of the 4x4 Transit...

Post by: jonnycool on 08 February 2012, 11:34:52: Seen quite a few of those 4x4 Transits around here, the council use them for whatever reason because there's quite a lot of rural and forestry land around these parts - I remember thinking a garage had gone mad and done a custom job on one till I saw a few different ones around ;D
