Hi I'm Solow Suspension, here to help.

Ya about to say just clocked 7k on the bus and the tyres look great at the moment.. no uneven wear yet
 
Anyone running rear adjuster deletes with Solow NSL? How much lower do they run? I’ve always fancied mine a bit lower, the fronts still have some adjustment but the rears are all the way down. Curious whether an adjuster delete would get me where I want to be, or I’m better off swallowing it and going for Solow lows!

It's a simple DIY job if you're handy to see where it'll sit. You can remove 1 or both rings or the entire thing. THQ sell rubber mounts to use if you remove the whole thing.
 
Hey Andy,
I have a set of lowered rear springs that have cracked but it's hard to identify them. They are on my previously converted VW Transported 1968cc, 2017.
I've removed the wheel and jacked the side up to decompress the red spring and cleaned it. The part code I see is 07.8250 / 8 then a missing digit then 557. Is there a way to find out the replacement part and what the spring size is?

Appreciate any help and guidance you could give,
Thanks,
Ormond

Yeah the screw is out and the tab is folder up. Its just the tyres being 255/45/19 but im going to go to a 245/45/19 to see if that helps.
Hey Sam 👋 I know this is an old post but I’m about to buy 245/45/19’s and wonder if this solved your problem?
Hope you can help! I’m running out of options fast!

That says cobra at the top. So I’d say cobra lowering springs
 


How do you find the clearance for speed bumps etc, I've got the same van and am thinking of going solow low but im worried about scraping the underside, currently running 275/35/20 all round on a staggered set up. Van looks cracking btw.

Cheers. 🤙 You won’t have to worry about scraping the bottom at all. The only small issue I had was slight rubbing on the front inner arch liners when fully compressed on fast undulations or camber changes while cornering. I was on 40 profile tyres but changed to 35s (255x20) which Transporter HQ recommend for SoLow Lows. No rubbing at all now and the ride is superb, really smooth, controlled, comfortable and none of that silly non stop bouncing along motorways you see on vans with cheapo lowering springs, either. Speed bumps are not an issue as long as you don’t hit them at silly speeds……just watch your splitter if your parking nose first over a kerb…..am on my second one now lol 🙈. Reverse parking for me from now on ✌🏻
 
Cheers mate, the info is much appreciated. I've decided to pull the trigger and order a set, hopefully here this week to get them fitted for the weekend.
