I think it rides really nicely, there is no rubbing from the wheels, and suprisiningly its not a bumpy ride either, its firm but at the same time it soaks up the bumps alright. i used to have a transporter T4 slamed down and that was a back breaker of a ride haha. the other thing i have found really good with these shocks is you can still heavly load up the back of the van without it comprimising the ride to much either. i would def recommend them to anyone looking at lowering there van.

Looks excellent, mate. Raven blue is seriously lush. The rear looks massive with no bulkhead!! I notice you've mdf'd the roof - I want to replace my hardboard lining as it's getting pummelled by my sub!! What thickness did you use mate?

Cheers, Jonesy :mrgreen:

cheers dude, yeah was bloody lucky to find a van in this colour. it makes loads of difference not having the bulkhead. the roof lining is just the original hardboard one, its just been covered in loads of stickers!! subs are ace for finding panels that rattle haha, a few of my mates with vans have changed there headlinings, they have used 6mm ply which seems to have work pretty well!

Van looks class dude, im glad to here you can load up the vmaxx with out any ill effects ie rubbing wheel arches.
What sort of weight are you loading your 2k up to dude :?: , its just my 2k would run around 1916KG during working hours and I was worried if I fit the vmaxx kit I might encounter problems, ye know what im saying dude I love the look of a slammed 2k but I would hate to fork out that dough and find a problem. ;)
