I've got the springs on mine. I quite like the ride, despite the fierce opposition to them. A bit bouncy/choppy and it hammers like hell if you don't see a pothole in time, but the cornering is vastly improved and the motorway wandering severely reduced. They do sit a bit lower than 60mm once on, and there is some 'westie lean' if you have all your units down one side.
looks like this on my standards:

Why not go for a fully adjustable system like mine. Its additional feature is self levelling on site
Cost nowt

I wanted a 60mm drop but I do have a camper & westie lean doesn't sound good ! does anyone else have this problem? any pics?
Could be the vdubbits ones from cornwall, only 40mm but a flat ride?

I got two words E - Bay
I got this kit on mine fella and its bloomin brilliant front -50mm rear -40mm, head down ass up. the ride is sublime it soaks up bumps and potholes and with a high top like mine it stops the motorway buffeting -60mm is gonna be a harsh ride and you could save yaself some shingers to boot, remember its a camper not a race car
as for the westy lean Brickwerks do an anti lean kit for about £50 which will sort the problem and you can get it all fitted up together

Westie lean is visable on most campers and the severity depends on your conversion and how much it weighs. Brickwerks sell shimms to rectify this. My van is a panel, so carries a bit of extra weight, and the reimo units are pretty heavy.

Thanks for all your replys.
So i need springs, dampers, "westie" shims (cos I have a camper) & new anti roll bars
Brickwerx is the best
but some of the cheaper stuff will improve the ride
You pays your money I suppose
Thanks again

The "Bad Grip Performance" ones are the same as Jamex, and are the same as G-max. Different brands, same manufacturer.
I now Believe this is what Just Kampers are now selling.
Google T3 jamex, search Brick-yard and Club80-90 forums for Jamex, see what comes up!

Buy quality buy it once, buy 'cheap' buy it twice.
Especially true when buying suspension!!
