    For Sale Bilstein B14 Rear Shocks (t32 Rated)

    They've done 10K, Fitted them and took them off after one drive, as i decided to stick with the OEM rear shocks, due to these not fitting very well, and leaving me with a knocking noise (pretty sure its MY vans chassis fixing points, and needs filing down. But they didn't make any noise on...

    Anyone Else Been Disappointed With B14's Ride Height ?

    Bit disappointed my b14s won't go that low, I don't think it even looks lowered sometimes lol They seem about the same as h&r 50mm springs on the back full wound down and the fronts won't tuck a 18" wheel and tyre. I'm running full kombi interior in a t28 chassis Ride quality is obviously...

    [Guide] Adjusting Front B14s

    Annoyingly, although I ordered the replacement bolts for the lower rear shock and ARB clamps a week ago, the seller has just notified me that they’re only just posting them today, so the van remains in the garage on jack stands unable to be used for a few more days. With this in mind, I’m...

    Breaking this out into a separate thread as I was polluting other non/vaguely related threads, and with thanks to @foggy3061 and @Grim Reaper for their contributions on thse threads.

    Review: Eclipse Custom Campers

    Hi All Credit where credit due and I am quite difficult when it comes to cars etc! I was recommended to Ian @Eclipse Campers by a good friend who loves his van more than life itself and has tried and tested a few conversion companies.

    Hello ! I am new here))) Most recently, I became the owner of the new VW Multivan VI, 150ph DSG, 2018y, in black. I live in Spain and many parking lots are rated at a maximum height of 2 meters. By this, I seriously thought about the changes in the suspension of my van. Now I am considering...

    Lower Springs And Beefier Arbs Or B14s?

    This is what happens when you wait a few weeks to get free fitting! Basically trawling the forum and t'interweb in general in the meantime means I'm now looking at springing for B14s instead of just shorter springs, thing is shorter springs with the vans stock 18 month old dampers and some new...

    B14's - Height Vs Ride

    So I am "Slammed" as low as it will go on the B14's at the moment.. The ride is firm! Daily for me its fine but when the family are in it, it does throw them about a bit and we are yet to do anything longer than an hour. Later in March we are doing a Cornwall/Devon trip (3-4 hour trip)...

    Is T6 And T5 Suspension The Same?

    Just purchased a set of B14’s for my T6 and on arrival the packing note lists the contents as T5 suspension. Have I been sent the wrong thing? Or are the parts for the two models identical? Hoping I don’t have to send these back as they weigh a ton.

    Introducing “the Stealth”

    It’s been a long time in the planning but I’ve been lucky enough to see conversion through to its current state. There are other bits that I’d like to sort - suspension, wheels, lower spoiler and LED’s but they’ll come in time. For now it’s getting used to a different feel, hoping for warm...
