OK opinion time please. For a late T4 SWB that's mostly unladen, but will have camping kit and bicycles every now & then.
I'm after some idea of which springs to go for - I've just fitted some Eibach which feel lovely - but they're just too high (just can't get into car parks). So I'm looking for something progressive and a resting altitude some 30 to 40mm below the Eibach. If you've fitted the Vogtland tapered, CMC (-60's?) T4sRus -60's I'd be really interested in your experiences with them. Has anyone tried the CMC "coilover" setup? Air would be nice - but I've spent more than I should already. Thanks |

I have had the green CMC's and they coiled up in the middle and took the weight on the top and bottom tail only, rode ok, but i hated the way they compressed so much. So I wouldnt really recommend them.
I have a friend who had the CMC coil overs, his van's behind jacked around like a roo, I followed him to wales and back and that was me put of the coil overs! I bought and stuck with the eibachs, till i rose the van up for a different look. The eibachs were the best, I had previously had about 4 sets of springs, less than one a year, so the ride quality, stiffness, and longevity worked out for me. I hear the vogtlands are very good and ride quite like the eibachs,,but no personal experience Likewise with the T4srus, only hear, but I hear they are OK. So for me, a liccle pointless chart would be would be: 1. Eibach 2. Vogtland 3. T4sRus 99.CMC -60mm 1024. CMC coil overs |
