Hi
I have a 99 caravelle 2.5tdi LWB it bottoms out at the rear when even mildly loaded and I was thinking of replacing the springs but not lowering. Are there uprated standard springs or will I just have to get spring assisters?

I have a camper converted from a 1997 T4 1200 TDI LWB Transporter & rear springs come in standard & heavy duty versions. The springs are colour coded according to their rating.

bottoming out when mildly loaded? Standard springs and New shocks maybe.

the springs are a blue dot which is for multi van and kombis I'm told and there's no direct replacement on the market..VW want £250 for a pair.
I ordered a full set of bilstein T4s a 28mm rear roll bar all new rubbers and a set of spring assisters to get me over the summer holidays. thanks for all the help Al
