Max . . . .60mm back / 45mm front, and level !!
stock steelies/ Chrome caps/ whitewalls,
Looks kinda retro/ old skool ?? may get the stainless beauty rings to complete.
pics not the best . . . .gettin dark out there!
I'll second the "Dont go lower than 45mm" scenario. Originally went wiv -60mm drop all round. The bus dropped almost 80mm at the front
NO GOOD !!!!!

Gary that looks the Bomb mate nice one Beauty ring should give it that 'deepdish' look whitewalls, how much?? are they VAN rated??
Max, . . .these whitewalls cost me £140 for 5. bought them at volksworld, this year.
same tyres are advertised in J/K's for £64.95 EACH, and they're only 4 ply. Mine are 6 ply and have been told they have ample load rating.
I had to pay for fitting and balancing, but still only works out at £40 per corner, plus a free spare
Tyres are 195,s as opposed to the 185's that came off, but they fit the rim well.
Hope this elps . . .
well done that man-those whitewalls etc look wicked! Mines been dropped 45mm with avos by simon and i run empis on it! I think it looks great and deffo improves handling etc
I've just recieved my JK -60mm kit, I'll be fitting it in the next couple of weeks.
I've got a panel van though so not carrying as much weight as a full on camper and I'm running 15" pentas (ET 21 I think!) with 205/65's on. Hoping for not to much rubbage but have the angle grinder on standby if needed!
Got mine lowered last year 45 front 60 back. I can honestly say it,s the best thing i have done to the van. My mane reason for doing it was the look but when I got in it and drove it I was very surprised by how much better the drive is, it's like driving a big car not a lumpy van. DO IT.
That said it was a bit of a pain doing it...Spacers,nuts,threads,new tyres, a few more hiccups...But worth it. Sherlock

Make sure you speak to Simon at brickwerks and listen to his advice. If you are a fully loaded camper I would not go lower than 30mm velle springs, he will explain why. Much better handling and the wind is not as much of a problem.
Always remember one thing my friend, this is the real thing. Life is not a dress rehearsal. So live life to the full with your BUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
