Soft Ride

[Hebridean]

I'm a new California owner buying a 2015 140 about a month ago and on getting it home (650 miles) I've noticed that the suspension is pretty soft wallowing. Noted that I didn't notice this so much on the mainland coming home, but my islands roads are built on peat and undulating which in a soft suspensioned vehicle can be unsettling.
What's the thinking on the suspension? Too soft? and upgrade routes? shocker changes?
Many thanks

Are the tyre pressures correct ?

Which is your vehicle '2015 140' or 'T7 California Coast'?

It's a van, so has van suspension. If you want a sports car ride then there are (expensive) options to change coils, springs or even swap it out for air suspension. All of which people have gone through on here for you to have a muse. IMHO you get used to it.

As has been mentioned.
1. It's a van.
2. It will be better when loaded.
3. Tyre pressures.
4. Upgrade the anti_ roll bars to HD versions, before thinking of new springs/ shocks.

Get some uprated ARB’s fitted. Should cost £500 approx fitted.

Will transform the ride.
