I'd love to see any and all pics of busses using the "Boomerang" style rear plates, normally installed to drop a bus, flipped around to Raise the bus.

Ive seen maybe two, but curious if there were more. Just curious to see how high it would be AND Axle/ CV angles.

Thanks!

Well I don't have pics but i'm pretty sure that it will blow the bus CV's. I raised my bus by putting 1 click on the sping plate, then I changed the bus CV's for 944/thing ones wich can get more angle and I still managed to break them now & then...

Depends on the use of the bus I guess... If it's just for the looks, mostly road driving it'll hold longer but if you offroad with it and bottom out on the suspension a lot it won't...

Yeah, the red camper was mine, thanks..

It wasn't really hard to get it that high, i'm sure you could make it a lot higher with a bit more work...
