Club 80-90 Forums

My 83 RHD camper leans noticibly to the right even without its overweight driver in place, understandibly as this is where all the furniture/driver is. Also my suspension is rock hard making my CD jump off track at the slightest bump. Can anyone recommend a set up for a softer upright ride ?

My Kamper leans to the right front too-suspect it is just a worn spring over the years of mainly just having a driver in it. Need to change the front springs, but havent plucked up the courage to try it yet!!
(Done the rears-REALLY easy!)

I just wonder how old/miles they have done.
mine is a 86 and perfectly level, it has done 175K, I weight around 11st but has no sign of leaning, furniture not that heavy though.
You need ambulance springs?

Mine is an '81. Suspect it has had a hard life-200,000 at least. One of the rears was broken, but the O/S front is very saggy !

I've got an '84 and mine is the same but i've had new springs and shox all round but it still leans over to the right.

If this is of any use?

When I put on some lowered springs on my 1984 camper the original front right spring had broken at the bottom where it joins the track control arm. I think there may be a design fault here because the springs for each side are the same but they have different angles to cope with at the bottom.

Could be this? Inspect the bottom of the front spring.

Incidentally the suspension on my van was very harsh but have put on Bilstein shocks and this has made it better.
