Welcome to part 2 of the rebuild of the underside of my (not so) rusty VW T4 van restoration project. In this video I start to bolt up some of the remaining pieces of the puzzle including all the front suspension, the steering rods, the front brakes and much more.
Unfortunately I found a few differences between the two subframes I've been swapping over and I had to modify the front shock plates to get around this! For some reason VW also decided to make numerous variations of parts over the years that the T4 was in production, which makes for pretty tricky parts shopping if your using bits and pieces from different years of vans (early vs late). I've tried to explain a few of these in the video to potentially help others out who might be unsure on what parts to get!
In part 3 I will be hopefully be buttoning up the final parts of the puzzle including the rear brakes, the handbrake assembly (from lever all the way to caliper, absolutely everything!) and the fuel tank will be refitted too.
