    Is My Van Only Partially Lowered?

    I bought a Highline with some Sportsline mods last year from a main dealer. I've been delighted with it but I'm a bit confused by the existing suspension setup! It's a 2017 T6 Highline T32. I believe it's been lowered at the front, certainly looks like a nice gap between the arch and tyre on...

    Raising The Rear, Lowering The Front

    I think my new van is threatening to make me bankrupt! Given that I've had a T6 VW camper conversion before I've become aware that the steering on my new van is slightly 'skittish', it feels lighter and during recent poor weather the traction has been poor, the van looks rear heavy as well. I...

    Front Suspension Top Mount Mod

    I’m thinking ahead a little and might find this mod beneficial in the next phase of work. Looking at the pictures online, the mod looks like it’s just a reduction of the outer diameter.... the question is what should the machined down diameter be? I have access to a lathe, so doing the work is...

    T6 Caravelle 204 Dst

    Hi all, First off....thanks for all the information already available in these threads. I got my 2016 Caravelle a few weeks ago and first thing I changed to were Michelin cross climates on standard 17 inch wheels. Very impressed when I had to suddenly stop to avoid a collision. Next step is to...

    CRS Performance

    After many months of debate on the best low suspension for the Transporter buses, we have eventually taken our development to another level. Over the last 6 months we have shown that probably the best all round kit with sensible drops is the KONI shocks and H&R spring kits (correctly spec'd). We...

    Koni Active Dampers and H&R -40mm Springs

    Ever since I have had my 2017 T30 Kombi I have found the ride to be quite harsh. I fitted -40 Cobra springs to the standard dampers more to just reduce the arch gap above the wheels than for comfort. Like me, many people over the years have asked, "how do I make my Transporters suspension...

    Stance+ Coilover Review

    I just received my Stance+ coilovers today in Australia (took 10 days) and I’m happy with the build quality and finish for the price. I’m used to high end and custom suspension on my track cars and the anodizing, paint and welds looks pretty good. Will post more pics when installed but here are...

    Need The Front Slightly Lower, Hub Mod?

    Hi folks. I have 40mm springs on my van. I am really happy with the back but the front is slightly higher than I'd like. I hate reverse rake. What are my options except buying coilovers or buying a set of 60mm springs and using the fronts only? My mate with a T5 mentioned the hub mod but I...
