Alphie Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Hi. The ride height / ground clearance of my conversion (with no extra load added) has always been quite poor, causing regular grounding in camping fields. I have noticed (at the club meet) that it sits a good inch or two lower than most other vans. My question is, has anyone sought to improve a situation like this with new or uprated rear springs? Thanks Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picasso Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Hello Chris do you know if your van has been lowered such as has it got coil overs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always just accepted that its down to the extra weight of conversion but now I've seen other camper versions I can see there is a difference. thanks for your reply Lee.

Picasso Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Well the option is to go for heavy duty springs these are standard height to the originals but give a harder ride so for you these should alter hight and carry the extra weight better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
