co-op scooby Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 thanks again folks , just no sure if I want to lower it or keep it standard.Hi mate.Personally I would rather keep my fillings than lower my van.Have you any lowered vans around your way which you could hitch a lift in and see how the ride compares with standard??Regards Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rs-van Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 it shouldn't make it any harder just by putting axle on other side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-op scooby Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 it shouldn't make it any harder just by putting axle on other sideDoesnt this contradict the initial posting?Ive seen vans bouncing along once flipped so it has to make a differenceRegards Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs-van Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 thats right enough andy , think il just keep it as it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-op scooby Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 thats right enough andy , think il just keep it as it isYou can still have a good looking van on standard ride height mate.The one near me that was lowered by flipping the axle is now back to standardand it still looks sweet on 17's.Side skirts,GTI fogged bumper and cossie rear bumper gives the impression of lowering, and with a set of 17s to fill the arches you wont need to lower it IMO.Regards Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs-van Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 it has gti side skirts and front bumper and full bumper on the back but just 15 gti alloys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
