Jumped on 633 saw nothing in Willenhall, so guess it's now been moved and looks like it's been replaced by 863.

Any idea how long 4001/4002 have left in service?

Not sure. All the Spectra's are on borrowed time.

For the reference (Although it will make no odds to you). 4001 was on a peak time 54 and 4002 is/was on the 2 this afternoon.

About a month left on them ?

My guess is that it will be likely to be a little longer than that. Mercs i feel will be top priority to go, followed by B6s and B10Ls. However i guess as time goes by, the amount of money WN will want to spend on them out of there budget will slowly get less and less. If a Spectra failed today and needed a new engine, it would probably jump above 4012/22 in the withdrawl order.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

With 4135 and 4140 transferring to WN, It seems possible that ALX400 B7TL's from PB will displace WA's Y reg tridents to WN to replace the Spectra's

@Nathan  Think you could be right, lets hope they can find a way of saving 4001/2 for preservation. Remember 4001 when it used to be on the 9 in it's unique livery advertising the fact that it was the first low floor double decker.

I have heard that 4001 is going to Wythall and 4002 is going to a Dundee bus preservation group.
