Stormtrooper caddy 4 build

White in all stitching. If you feel the need for blue accents there are plenty of small things around that can be painted blue. It'd be easy to overdo it with blue which will make it look over the top IMO. It's all down to personal taste though, what you might like, somebody else might not so just do what you think looks good.

Yeah think that’s a fair comment, maybe get a new garter and hand break cover with white stitching marry it in. Think I think to much about it.

If the stitching in the seats is white, then I’d stick to white as it will all tie in nicely.

As barbel said there are plenty of bits that can be painted blue on the interior

Hi mate. loving the van BTW

Just a quick question, Ive just got the Vmaxx Extreme kit from Ronnie, what sort of settings have you found to be best all round?
Did you litterally just start you adjustment in the middle on the Vmaxx? and go harder or softer from there?

[Caddyluv]

Ok backs I have two holes left to the lowest setting, 10 clicks from the hardest, But I have 45 tyres on the back so if you have 40s you might want to go lower.

Fronts I have about a inch left in ride height, and I’m on 10 clicks from the hardest setting this weekend I’m going to soften that by 3-4 clicks coz the roads around me are getting to bumpy. But to be honest it is going to have to be down to you as everybody has different preferences. Give it around 200 miles before you decide coz they need to bed in a bit. Obviously if it’s to hard then adjust. Also depends on how hard you want to drive round corners.

So today fitted my modules for folding mirrors, when fitted last week the controls were working opposite. So up went down down went up and so on. After getting them looked at by @ stan-the-man. All good so fitted them today and it’s all working great thank you. Also got some looms for the new Audi seats being fitted tomorrow. 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Cheers for the info, it's a good place to start and will work it from there
Running 225 - 35 - 18 so will run at the 12-14 clicks from hard to start with

Where/how do you do the wheel centralising plates?
Did see something on here about making your own?
Does that simply push back the axle after the flip?

[Caddyluv]

I probably wouldn’t make your own. You can pick them up from RAD, yeah it’s quite easy, I will put a picture up. Look up a thread, bump stop cutting from Friday that will also help. If your doing it on a ramp. You just have a axis support so it can’t fall. Good luck.

How far does it need to go back by?

[Caddyluv]

There is a nut which is your guide. Promise you once you take it off it’s explanatory.

Had bit of a day today. , so went to take out the seats bolts thinking I had the right size. To big, 30min drive to change it. Got back undone all the bolts to get ready to drill the holes and completely didn’t think I need new nut and bolts. So instead of another 30min drive. Going to leave the seats for another day. Little frustrating. So instead of wasting a day i gave the van a clay bar Autoglem super resin, autoglem gloss protection, then some fusso 99.

Look how shiny. So tired think my arms going to fall off.
