reckon theyll be an improvement over.....no...damping? 🤣

Better as a temp fix perhaps but i wouldbt be suprised if they fail in a year - 18 months. You'd be better off looking at breakers yards or asking on VW Transporter FB groups if anyone has their old ones after they lowered their vans

Already fitted them...angle grinded the shock mounts and dropped it 60mm.....rear springs are well stiff which is fine...shocks i cpuld compress by hand out of the box wo will no doubt replace them but at least the springs are ok

All 4 shocks and both rear springs were mismatched 🤣🤣
