Welcome To Transporter Towers !

Hi and welcome,

We are a VW Transporter enthusiast owned business based in Swansea South Wales specializing in aftermarket parts for the T4 and T5 range of buses. We only belive in suppling quality parts that we can stand behind. The van scene is ever changing and the new wave of bandwaggoners that have jumped on the fast buck ship are making things tougher than ever for us time served traders. Help support us and we will keep offering fresh new parts from europe and our own stable.




Hell if it wasn't for us you would all be driving around on jamex springs !!!!

Bags out for the lads


Crikey !!!!

We finally got those air bags on the no brakes van and it sits quite low but we have taken them off and re-machined the ends as we could shave off another 3/4" of material off the end plates.
Yeah it might not be that low but it hasn't even got a single panel in there as it's a empty unline van that will be lower and can go back to standard ride height at a flick of a switch. Cool As F**K !!

Hopefully be sorted for oktoberfest next weekend !

Spring rolls !!


At last we have our own range of -4omm and -60mm lowering springs. These are made in the u.k and are very consistant unlike the hoards of ebay springs out there. We have sold out of the -60mm at the moment but will be having more in soon and then we will be phasing out our budget range.

Rim job !!!!


Today We picked up some 17" rondells for our project van, check out the 4" dish on these bad boys, 9" wide et 20 these are so going to rub even when we fit the shims and airbags.

Rarer than a steak with legs and head still running around a field !!!!!!!!!!


Gonna need a refurb first, All you wheel whores stick your tounges back in your mouths !!!!!!

Big shiney orange balls !!!!!


We got some gear from no brakes speed shop to sell on the site as it kinda goes hand in hand with the dub scene so have a look on the site as we have got these 76 Aeriel toppers and some 76 and moon air fresheners in the misc section of the site.

I would rather shove wasps up my a**e !!!


Tonmawr Tiki is so fed up of the influx of "New uneducated Blood " (his words not mine) that he's decided to sell the polish multivan to fund his new T25 Project.

I had the pleasure of driving this new project 35 miles as he needed someone to drive it home and i thought "Hey why not ".

I WILL TELL YOU WHY NOT !!!!!!!!! The thing is the worst crock i have driven, It took all my might to find first, third and forth, second gear was missing in action and then the temp light starts flashing and next thing a oil leak has found it's way on to the manifold and it starts billowing smoke out of the back end.

I can see why we are having so many converting over to T4's.

I jumped in my camo van afterwards even though it's slammed -85mm it still felt like a bentley in comparison !

sad day at the shop.


We had to shut last friday as it was our good mate Gareths funeral who we lost in a accident on the way to the le-mans weekender, A big loss to the Vw scene in this area.

The funeral was like a who's who of the south wales scene and was a celebration of Gareths hi-octane life.

Gar left a big hole in the scene, we miss you buddy.

Cool that the car park looked like bug jam !!!!


Quirkys volksrod looked awesome just "dumped" outside the pub !!!!

No Brakes, no glory


Went over to the no brakes shop last night and the shop truck was up on the lift as they were fabricating brackets for the air-ride set up that they scammed off us the other week.


They only intend to trifle with the rear as the front is "too much grief" as they said.


They had the front end off as they were messing with pump timing and pressure trying to get a bit more ommmppphhh out of the 2.4d lump but knowing those chop shop nuts they will proberbly put something else in it's place.

The great pretender


Out and about today and i met up with one of the locals in the T4 scene and also one of our customers "JOE".

Joe is one of the nicest kids with a T4 that i've met even though he blatently copied our van.

If you see him around give him a wave.

The dungeon !!




I had to go over the lock up today full of T4 delights (a battered 1.9 td and my double cab syncro pick up) to get a booster pack and air ratchet and found a complete multivan interior (as you do) which i sold (provisionally) within 1 hour.




Also found some rare carbon and chrome grills for the long nose vans so i think they will be up on ebay later !




The 1.9 is off to Ricks chop shop for a full pampering session ready for vanfest this year as i want to buy myself a nice ride with the proceeds as driving T4's every day for god knows how many years is getting a bit boring !!!!!

cookies !!!!


Yeah we are back on ebay :( As much as i hate egay it's a necessity as the amount of newbies that go on there thinking it's the be all and end all but as you can see the stuff is cheaper through the site as i pay over £400 a month to them suckers in fees.


Don't even get me started on paypal, I got to ditch them suckers as they are leeching off us big time !


And when i pay my fees i hate it that i can't list stuff straightaway cos of the cookies ebay use and i have to delete my cache AAARRRGGGHHHHH !!!!!!!!!

No Brakes at T4'S R US


Those crazy f**cks from no brakes speed shop dropped by our new place today to wish us luck and give us some hot rod dvd's and stickers as we help them out loads.

They dropped by in their awesome shop van which proves you can look cool for not a lot of money and of course all the parts were supplied by us including our own u.k made -60mm lowering springs which are due back in to stock on july 4th (my birthday peeps).

Look out for a future collaberation with no brakes as they spied a rayvern air ride set up sitting in the corner of the warehouse and their eyes glazed over !!!

whats going down ? (WE ARE !!! )


Well it's been a while, we have been tweaking the cart at the back end of the site and moving premises. Sorry to everyone who's had to shop elsewhere but maybe you will appriciate us even more now !!!! LOL

We have moved in to our new one stop shop which is super slick but sorry guys we are now mail order only, no more lowering, tricking vans out (well we still do our own)and no more customers calling in to save on postage sorry. We decided to go mail order as there is not enough hours in the day to talk, have some coffee with our public and send out goods on time so something had to give.

The site will be up and running soon so hold on to your cash and spend it with the T4 gurus as we need your cash !!!!!!
Love
Ade.
