Yes sir ! !
That's the part I was looking for.
Fender flairs.
Thanks Keith !


I am now on ebay to find myself a wheelchair lift because I think that I am going to disassemble the ramp of the bus.
I have found one in Germany for the price of 530,00€. (688.92 USD)

http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/ws/eBayISAPI.dl ... 1114495377

I think that my 1996 Harley ,Fat Boy is too heavy for that lift.
Onley 312KG (about 687.83 lbs)

Maybe I have not wrote it down correctly .
Next time I will try to say it better.

Sorry about that but thanks for your answer my friend.
It could be possible that is was the mud flap

You're welcome Charley, My PO used the chair lift in my bus to load his Harley. Worked well for him.
Here is a pic of the lift when he used it.

That center would pull out to load the bike and could be removed to stow it.

Re: 1995 Ford Eldorado Shuttle bus

Is your lift about the same as the one I found on Ebay Keith?
I have to extend the drive plate to fit my Harley also but that should not be a problem.
The only thing I have to be sure of is that the electric pump can handle the weight of the Harley.

Re: 1995 Ford Eldorado Shuttle bus

My lift is a Ricon. It was original equipment and was probably built for the heaviest electric chairs of the day. I wish I had an answer for you,but sadly I don't.

Good luck in your search,

Keith

Ricon and Braun lifts on the market today are rated for up to 800 lbs...don't know if that helps or not.

Re: 1995 Ford Eldorado Shuttle bus

For an exact match on the fender flare, you will probably have to go to Eldorado. Most of the bigger van builders( Eldorado is one of the biggest) have that sort of thing custom made for them.
Here's their contact page, they may have a dealer in Germany.
http://www.enconline.com/contact.cfm

I used to haul vans out of the Salina plant. The shipping dept was always great to deal with.

800lbs?

That's about 400kg.
It will do the job I think.
Thanks for your info.

No worries here. When I re-read your post it was clear enough, I just didn't pay attention.

Re: 1995 Ford Eldorado Shuttle bus

I don't know the dealer, but the price of $146 sounds more than reasonable. Hopefully the freight costs won't eat you up.
