Hi I'm new to the van resto game so any help or advice your willing to part with is much appreciated  I'm after a few things initially 1. The existing bushes on the spring shock units are perished and need replacing does any one have a contact or idea were I can get replacement shock / spring units? 2. As the van is a gracemur it's has the corner non transparent Perspex windows, I want to replace these with a clear type window, I'm after a place that either supplies the window or a material. Also after the rubbers required. 3. The existing rims are a lite rusty and have a few bad spots which look to far gone. Are the rims a Holden stud pattern? We're can I source new rims? 4.what type of brake pads do the vans use? And we're can I find replacements I'd appreciate any help on the above or any other points you may think could be valuable Nick |

Having this measurement + google should be able to help determine the rim. #4 - Taking these to a brake specialist will help identify them. Worst case scenario, they can re bond them. Hope this helps |

Quite some time ago, JBJ posted the below info. I have tried to google the parts, with no real success in finding the bushes, though I might do better if I pulled a unit off and had a better look at it. I did establish that in "* 2 x UL36F606A SUZUKI SIERRA 4-96-12-98SPD", the 4-96-12-98 measn April 96-December 98 when Suzuki Sierras were the same (ie a manufacturing run). I, too need to redo the bushes, so let us know what you end up using.
"I rebuilt a Sunliner independent suspension model a few years back.
At the time Spyder gave me a list of Suspension bits needed, from King Springs. I managed to fix mine without buying any of these bits.
I've just found the document . I sent it to Roger in WA when his fell apart on a kerb, & I think it got him sorted out with the repair.
For what its worth, here is the list.
PARTS AS FITTED TO SPYDERS SUNLINER SUSPENSION
( HOPEFULLY CORRECT)
* 2 x Sleeves FH105 Sleeve THR-M55X2-48 I.D. X 120 LONG
* 2 x Seats FH2015 Seat 60 I.D. SPRING LOW – FH1015-20
* 2 xLock Rings M55x2 OFOR FH1015-2
* 1 x KPF – 215 350-65-12.5-13-30016 PROSPORT
* 2 x UL36F606A SUZUKI SIERRA 4-96-12-98SPD
* FRONT SHOCKS SUZUKI VITARA
FITTED KING COIL OVER SPRINGS
KONI HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE
The above is how I wrote down what he gave me over the phone.
I have no idea if I made any errors transposing the numbers, as I haven’t had to check any of it
I make no apologies if its not correct, but I think it was OK back in 2008."
