Why panel up a 15? That sounds a bit backwards...

I think the previous bus was set up the same way, likely the next one will be too.

I sold it about a week before vintage meet this year and the shipper wrecked the roof transporting it too New Jersey. For my next bus I'm buying a 15 window to weld into a panel so I can use all of the panel sections I have laying around.

Got the spindles done by Nate and the disc parts at thebusco. The shims are specific and control the caliper pistons. With discs and a sway bar this is a nice change from the sloppy front end I had.

I am bad about reading and not commenting.

Been watching from the beginning.

Where did you purchase your front adapters?
