| 09/12/03 | Ronnie Laursen | hey Todd i just uploaded some pictures under customized. About your soft front, try KYB shock "gas a just" they are for heavy vehicles,use the standard length. They seems to work fine for me. I also use them in the rear, but need to reposition the mount to make them travel more..the rear steps a bit. But i will also use transporter tires in the rear to make i more "stiften". Like you i use a 1600 Dp for now, but have a 1700 type 4 on the shelf, it will get injection which gives 80 hp as standard. Thats enough for me. It would be easier to use a 1835 or 1914 type one, but you know i have this engine a like the strenght of it. But it has to be converted to upright cooling(done), with external oil cooling system and electric fuel pump and other small works. If you want horsepower and economy go for injection. Or maybe a watercooled..but that's amother story. hi from Ronnie |
| 09/10/03 | Todd | Ronnie, The Type 3 rear end conversion kicks a__ compared to the old reduction box setup. I put short travel shocks in the rear end and they seem to be working great. The drop spindle front end may need a little tuning on my bus though. It seems to bounce, so it may be a little too soft. Do you know of any quick fixes for this problem. As far as my engine goes, it is just a good ole 1600dp, but I have plans to correct that in the near future. I am investing in an 1835cc with dual Weber 44's. The motor will probably be in order for a rebuild, but it'll push my bus a lot better than the 1600. What are you running in your bus? And do you have any pics on here of it? Also, if you have any leads on a larger displacement engine.. nonstroker for practical purpose, that would be great in case the deal on this 1835 falls through. Thanks for the comment. Todd |
| 09/08/03 | Ronnie Laursen | hey Todd cool bus dude,except for the type3 tranny i have the same setup on my 65' doubledoor. Isn't just so mych better than stock! Have you installed new rearshock mount(to give shocks more workspace)? Or maybe short shocks. I feel my bus is a little hard in the rear. What about engine stock or stroker? cheers from Denmark .. Ronnie Deluxes are harder thatn sambas, more "strickt" |

| 05/22/03 | thayer | What does it matter what Jerry does with his vehicles. I've known Jerry for a long time and know he wouldnt misrepresent himself in any way. I Dont know for sure, but maybe Jerry is looking to trade down plus some money to help with Medical expenses. |
| 04/30/03 | Clem | Jerry, Isn't this like the 5th or 6th bus you have bought only to resell? I don't care about re-sellers who are up front about it, but all along you have always said you weren't trying to turn a bus. You say your selling due to illness but you are open for trades, what kind of trades would your sickness deem appropriate? |
