Team Banded Brothers.

If anyone wants the black amaroks let me know. 9 and 9.5. Steels are new but they have a few marks on from storage and tyre fitters dropping bolts on them. They aren’t that bad nothing a touch up pen won’t solve. Just steels. £700 collected or £750 posted. Brighton area. Willing to drive a little to take the brunt out of it for someone. I’ll also throw in some caps as well.. you know the hard to get ones...

Removed one of the rear adjuster rings out of my B14 set up.

Front now as low as it can go and rear wound all the way down with only one ring.

Of course, the front now sits too high, so I’ve got T6 top mounts ready to fit next to hopefully even it up.

I can’t imagine how low the rear would be with the adjuster completely removed!!

Snapped the head off a rear ARB bolt in the process FFS.

Are the T6 top mounts the modified machined ones? They will allow you to go even lower than the standard T6 ones will, if you wanted to.

Yes mate. T6 machined top mounts from THQ.

I need replacement ARB bolts.
I was thinking about H&R bars. Maybe now’s the time.

If it makes you feel better, I snapped one of mine too. They get really rusted up. Thankfully I managed to tap mine out.

I used WD40 and a bit of heat too and one just fell apart like butter :(

I didn’t risk the other side. I just got the misses to stand on the calliper and jump up and down!

Will get it on the ramp and drill/tap out this week.

Any suggestions on where to get replacements?
Also does anyone know how much lower than T5.1 top mounts the T6 machined ones are?

You’ll get something like 10-15mm extra with the machined top mounts. When I ran my empty kombi with B14s, rear adjuster deletes and machined top mounts, I was about 85mm lower than standard.

I’ve got some of the bolts you need at the cave. PM me your address if you can’t find them anywhere else and I’ll send you a couple.

Aluminium Silver
Van lowered at 70mm with no problems

I have on order

Both sets off Jamie at Duchy Wheels who really is a top guy, the wheels are amazing, I,m pretty sure Jamie makes them for Tamar Wheels.
Colour is a personal choice, my new ones are gonna match my van colour.
The side door doesn’t catch (by 3mm) on my 18s
Hope that helps you

As in previous posts it all depends on your offset, if your new wheels are made right by the right person you
shouldn't have any problems tbh mate.
There are some top guys on this forum who know there stuff, if you need to know anything else
about Banded wheels just ask away , I,m sure we all will be happy to help

Looks ace. Keep thinking of putting mine to silver as I think silver on silver defo works,
 
Those bentleys are 20s aren’t they?

My front sits down 10mm lower aired out on 18s I measured it yesterday :whistle: on a 225/40/18 and a 235/40/18

see mine here on 20s. 235/35/20 and a 255/35/20 the offset on these is pretty much on point it doesn’t get a better fit than these.
