Hey,

I have a T25 Westy and have got quite a lot of work ahead replacing rubber bushes ETC throughout the van.

With all this work going to take place maybe a good time to upgrade suspension too.

What is the best spring and shock set up. Dont want to lower the van at all maybe a lift would be a good idea I'm not too sure as it's already a tricky drive in the wind!

Let me know aht you guys think. AFAIK looks like standard shocks and springs on the camper at the minute.

Thanks!

I've got standard springs on my van and until recently had what I'm sure was the original dampers. I replaced the dampers with Bilstein B6's on the front and Discovery TD5 terrafirma dampers on the rear. It's transformed the handling of the van.

For the money I'm quite happy with Bilstein B4 dampers and B3 springs.

Are these a straight fit? Thanks.

Standard Shocks or Bilstein B4’s will see you right.
