how do you lower a 78 vw bus?

Answer 1

Its not a good idea.. but if you want to try

1) On the front end you will have to drop the axels with some fabricated adapter. ok.. that's the easy part.

2) On the rear end, the wheels are attached directly to the transaxle which, in turn also holds the engine to the car. (getting the idea - this means that you are going to either have to fabricate a new trans axle or you are going to have to drop the entire drive train.

THe cheap, and totally unsafe way to lower it is to get smaller rims and tires. That will lower the car, but also result in a lower load rating and likely a whole bunch of blow outs at the worst possible times.

If you are making a show car with limited driving (it gets towed from there to there) then go the smaller wheels thing.

If you are planning to drive this.. then re-think this idea.
