Take the wheel arch measurements , centre of the wheel to the top of the arch vertically up . standard van 460 mm 40 mm drop would be 420 as an example . Yours looks closer to 70 mm at the rear and this is because the rear spring isnt coping with the weight of the conversion ( camper ). H&R actually have 2 x front spring and 2 x rear springs in their arsenal , neither will hold a camper at the described 40 mm . there are solutions for this , some cheap and cheerful, some are fabulous ! . we are well know for the fabulous ones but it costs money to it correctly ,, Much better road holding. more comfort , stability and generally feels more car like . These can cope with the weight of a camper as well reviews speak for them selves . You dont need a coil over kit which is what 99 % of suspension companies want to sell you .In Need of a bit of help.... As a lot of us on here my bums a bit low so had a look under van thinking it be original springs but no? see pics?
So not sure what's what's... well I know the shocks original
Thanks for any advice...
ps I'm more for comfort the way the roads are around here

Well measured as you said. back is 384mm - front is 425... but at this point would like to sort out the back as when loaded up be even worse? But still be comfortable...
Ok 75 mm drop at the back , ( too low ) 35 mm front which is sensible

I would have to recommend a 10 hour round trip, folk have traveled further for Steves services! Plus you get to see the delight that is Cannock, and it's new mega shopping outlet!
That's useful. ThanksGOW Motors in Denny, you could give them a call @Jim Rey they might be able to help with suspension if you buy the kit you like.

Just a thought @Jim Rey but have you thought of undertaking the West Midlands 500 and combining a flying visit to CRS within the itinerary?
There's plenty to see in Cannock with an excellent chip shop barely a 1/4 mile from Steve's unit, I must confess I didn't visit the shopping centre but with the right climbing gear you could even explore the odd slag heap or two while having new suspension fitted.
