CAD files?

As the search function doesn't let you look for 3 letter searches I'm not sure how to find these if they exist....

Does anyone have CAD files for Adjustable spring plates & a split Type2 chassis section, torsion housing rearwards.

I've found a rear section of a Type 1 chassis & SA spring plates, but I really need adjustable springs plate & a bus rear chassis CAD file for some design work I'm tinkering with.

Thanks

CAD file would just cut the plates, not the splined portion, correct? Would you transfer the splined section over from another? Which torsion bars are you using? I did a bay T2 IRS swap into my bus years ago (I think it was Wolfgang?) but the torsion bars were early bay I think and late bay trailing arms, don't remember.

Just a thought, why not just reindex the torsion bars close to the height you need, then take up the rest with adjustable coiloves? There's a huge selection of adjustable coilovers nowadays compared to the cheap EMPI crap we were stuck with for so many years.

Hi,

I'm not trying to make the spring plates, just want to build a CAD model of the rear of a Split with Type1 adjustable spring plates.

Thanks
