Lowered to standard springs

[SF_52EVO]

Decided to go back to standard height, but there seems to be so many different spring options. For anyone know how to identify which are the right ones? Van is a T30 Kombi

Thanks

Steve

Exactly where mine are

Was hoping to find some local as I don’t find time to travel as far these days, but want to make sure I get the right ones.

These were my original T30 springs but after camper conversion were too saggy so put beefier ones on to lift height as I go bush(offroad)in my van and need as much clearance as possible. 3 yellow marks on springs.

Correction 4 yellow marks on rear Springs

Thanks guys.

So yours were 4 yellow Mick, and Pete your table says 3 yellow and 1 Orange. Typical Volkswagen making it nice and simple!

Then there is the fronts to work out. I think I’ll just open another drink and figure this out in a few days haha. Merry Xmas guys.

Having had chance to think about it. I figure the different springs are partly to go with the different shocks. As I’ve got Koni shocks it possibly becomes less important, as long as I go for ones that came from a T30 Kombi. (Could be totally wrong).

@CRS Performance when are you back in work please? Could probably do with calling you to talk through before I do anything, and check if the shocks need to be adjusted for standard springs. (Can’t remember if the ones you sold me were adjustable or not)

Thanks

Hi, I have a T6 T30 which has been lowered by 30mm when I bought it, I’ve just found out it has a snapped spring and needs replaced, I am wanting to take it back to standard height so is it just a case of sourcing some standard springs and changing them or will I need to change the dampers as well?
Thanks

If it was just a 30mm drop then it most likely has standard shocks on still so just a spring swap will suffice. Standard shocks will be black where as most aftermarket ones will be coloured in some way - red, yellow, blue etc.

Great thank you

I have a set of OEM T6 T30 suspension in my garage. Im sure we can sort out a price.

 

[Skyliner33]

Oh no I just realised I gave the fronts the white van collecting any old iron yesterday. Still got the rears though.

 

[minicharli]

Speak to @CRS Performance if Skyliner33 can’t sort you. Saw on another thread he has stock of stock suspension
