Hello,
Is anyone has fitted transporter T32 rear springs on their Cali?
I've put Pedders springs and I think it's a bit too much...(height)
I'd like to find a good set up for lifting a bit the rear.
I've also find weitec made some spacer 30/20mm to raise up our van.
Anyone can help ?

Thank's

I'm looking at fitting Pedders as I really want lots more height. I see from more recent posts you have now swapped out your Pedders springs. Please how did you find the Pedders ride/stiffness with little load?

Seb.
 
I haven't fit the full Pedders set up for the rear (Pedders springs with Bilstein B6).
When the Cali was empty the ride quality wasn't so bad, not too stiff and bouncy.
The problem was in ride height.
The front was standard (Bilstein B6/STD springs) the rear was sitting too high:
-the head lights were tilt down, had to manually adjust then
-the sink had some problems to waste,
-sleeping upstair on a flat surface your feet are higher than your head.

If you fit Pedders at the back and springs spacers at the front (20mm), you've got a "budget Seikel" with good ride quality.


sorry for my english...I'm gonna improve :)
 
And yes I remove the Pedder's to fit spacers, the rear end sit perfectly and my Cali fits in my garage.

Thank you so much for the info. Please what size spacer did you end up using on the rear? Do you have a picture of it now? Cheers
