Visited the guys at Transporter HQ a couple of weeks ago now to get the Eibach 35-40mm Sport Comfort set fitted. I was worried at first as I didn't think the ride was too bad on OEM springs and didn't want a harsh ride, how wrong I was ! Having the sport comfort set fitted has totally changed the way the van drives for the better, handling is massively improved and dare I say a tiny bit more economical on fuel too. Plus it looks loads better from that little bit extra drop and levels out the camper conversion.
Hi guys had my van lowered by you with springs you recommended . Must say not the cheapest but was the right call you do get what you pay for . Cheap coil overs are a waist of money
Great video 👍. I'm looking to lower my van now while I save for a full camper conversion. If I went for B14's would there be enough adjustment in them for the future to remove the rear end sag of the conversion. Not looking to go really low, more of a sportline ish look just a nice even arch gap and not like the van is on stilts 😂
Hi guys, great vlog, I absolutely love what you guys do.Always a bit embarrassed to ask about this kind of information. I’ve got a 2018 plated California Beach and was unsure what direction I should go with the suspension as I’ve been told it’s a slightly different setup to other campers or VW Transporters. I know you have worked on a California in the past so any recommendations would be great ! Cheers.
Finally! Thank you for this video, I’ve been worried about our rear end sagging! Are you still offering the free fitting on the rear lift springs? (Just noticed the video was a year old!)
We don't offer free fitting anymore I'm afraid. We're also booked up for about 3 months currently. We are working on an approved installer network though.
Bought a set not cheap at all but I’m hoping they will outlast the speed bumps here in London. Easy enough to fit , I would say this tho the bottom rubber on the van is not a great fit to the larger coils... do they do an upgrade ?... think it would be good.
The bottom rubber should be fine all be it tight. The genuine lower rubbers do wear a lot though. We are currently working on an improved stronger lower spring rubber.
Hi guys I know this is quite an old vid but I have a 2018 T6 California T30 with dcc what is my options to either level it up or drop it a little. Any suggestions would be great 👍🏻
Good information video guys!.. I remember when I called in to pick up my lights you talked about suspension for campers as I was wanting to try retaining standard ride height!! I'm still considering the bilstein set 35/40 with rear adjustables on, is it free fitting for these as well!.. cheers Rich
Great video. Where does the “H&R 50mm Lowering Springs” sit in this range? It’s got a great description on your website but don’t think it was mentioned in this video
Hi guys, got a sub t6.1, I work as plumber and carry racing and a lot of weight in the back in the back is lower than the front quite a lot. and would like to fit 20's on the van at current have standard wheels but after I have fitted the 20's wanna close up the gap and level the van also, I ant 100% sure what to buy I would prefer you guys to advice and I arrange to visit and you guys supply and fit please, would like to feel big improvements in the comfort also
Hi Guys, will Eibach Rear Lift Springs work on a T6.1 (T28) campervan conversion? There was some confusion/discussion on T6 forum last year regarding compatibility with T6.1s and TUV approval for them on T6.1? Thanks in advance.
Hi, great video. Need some advise on a t6 swb t32 4motion. Use the van for window cleaning. So has a 650 litre tank so around 750kg with frame work to rear of van. Had koni super active fitted with original t32 springs on them. Rear sits a lot lower. Also concerned about the weight. What advise can you give or say fit the Eibach levelling springs? Thanks very much .
Hi mate just watching your vid on lowering and leveling a camper will the single spring fitted on my standard shock I'm thinking of putting 20s on is it the same . cheers and thanks for your help 👍
Yes we sell these too. Its not ideal though as you still have an over compressed spring. Its a cheaper fix for looks but doesn't help the ride quality.

Thanks for this, just got a T6 shorty T32, drives way more bouncy than my old t4, think I’ll save my pennies for the Bilsteins then.
Glad to help
Great vid. Keeping us going in these tough times. Well done lads
Thanks for your kind worlds. We have a few other videos we're working on at the minute.

Yes totally. B14's are great for this and fitted to many full campers

Hi Paul, your Cali will be the same unless you have DCC? (dynamic chassis control) if so we have an option for this too.
No DCC fitted, will have to come and have a chat and see what you.can suggest 👍
Finally! Thank you for this video, I’ve been worried about our rear end sagging! Are you still offering the free fitting on the rear lift springs? (Just noticed the video was a year old!)
Hello, yes we still do free fitting on those only :)
I have a LWB T30 and sitting a little low after a convention. Would fitting Sportline springs to the front be an option of levelling.
Sportline springs are 30mm. It would help for sure but it will still be lower at the back..
Transporter HQ would it handle ok.
Just had B14 today off you, didn’t realise you where in Leicester or would of taken advantage of the free fitting😏
We don't offer free fitting anymore I'm afraid. We're also booked up for about 3 months currently. We are working on an approved installer network though.
@@THQAutomotive ah ok looks like im blowing the dust off my spanners and doing them then 🙈
@@vwtransportersandmotorcycl3729 If you need any help, feel free to give us a buzz for advice.
@@THQAutomotive Thanks chaps👍
Thanks boys , just seen your video and ordered a set rear springs for my California.
Glad it helped. Thanks for your order. 😊
My springs finally arrived , Friday , fitted them on Saturday and what a difference thy make , van sits perfect now 👍👍
@@a1autoservices621 How much did garage quote you to fit? Mine wanted 450😂 so I fitted them myself

All the way through I was thinking air ride , let’s see that vid please 👍
That might not be for a while now :(
Great video. Will be in touch 👍
I feel my pockets emptying every time I watch one of your videos.
Haha, they're working then 🤭

Hello, its Eibach that are the 35/40mm springs. Sorry we can't do free fitting on those :(
I want to fit a small motorcycle rack on the rear of my van. Is there anything available that is adjustable?
Great video. Where does the “H&R 50mm Lowering Springs” sit in this range? It’s got a great description on your website but don’t think it was mentioned in this video
If you carry weight in the back, H&R spring will make the rear sag worse.
@@THQAutomotive Ohh right thanks man!
Is it better (for ride comfort and wear on suspension) to have B14’s all the way down or SoLows all the way up?
Solow's all the way up
Transporter HQ that’s what I thought but the comment about the spring being fully compressed on the Solow’s had me wondering! Thanks 👍🏻
That's a shame! Cheers though for replying 👍
Great video man 👍
Very helpful
What model and size are the cooper tyres fitted the the swamper with raised suspension ?
Very interesting vid guys 👍
Thanks for the feedback :)

Hi Ben, you need adjustable coilovers. The level springs would make the back sit too high.
@@THQAutomotive many thanks. So which type please? Is that just for the rears?
@@THQAutomotive easier to discuss on phone?
@@bencavanagh5425 the twin adjust projekt sensitive or B14 Komfort's would be my recommendation.
@@THQAutomotive ok thanks. 👍 so just to the rears?
Hi mate just watching your vid on lowering and leveling a camper will the single spring fitted on my standard shock I'm thinking of putting 20s on is it the same . cheers and thanks for your help 👍
Is the So Low as comfortable as the Bilstein?
Our customers tell us Solow's set high and better than B14's set low.
Transporter HQ ok thx 👍🏻
But they don’t have TÜV for Germany I guess?
@@tim69_smcv No not at the moment sorry
Quick question😀.. Noticed some vans at the front arches have slightly bigger gaps than at the rears... is this normal or should they be all same gap?
Its normal if there is more weight in the back
@@THQAutomotive so if say its an empty kombi should they be set up all same arch gaps
@@luciocancellara4995 Yes depending on fuel load, DSG box, bi turbo etc
It is normal. Even with the van empty. Ask VW cust services in your country.
Do you guys still offer free fitting on bilstein b14 komfort?
We don't sorry. We currently charge £250 but we're fully booked until the end of August.
Hi Guys have you fitted these Eibach lift springs to a T6.1 California Coast ?
Yep, and supplied them to lots of dealers with have also.
@@THQAutomotive That’s great thanks - would it invalidate the warranty at all ?
@@peterhook8033 No not at all. VW Use Eibach for the sportline springs anyway
Is free fitting just on the b14s or on the eibach springs 2?
Sorry just of B14's, Solow's and the rear only spring options. Full spring sets are £150 fitting inc VAT.
Hi fellas. Would the B14 be good enough for a fully loaded campervan T6 weighing in at around 600-900kg at the back?
Yes absolutely. They’re perfect for a full camper.
@@THQAutomotive Can the Eibach adjustable springs also work with a full camper? The 35-40mm sound perfect for me, I don't want to drop more than that.
@@THQAutomotive Oh and if the Eibach's would work - can you ship to Australia? :)
@@D_L_J_83 yes absolute. They are perfect for a full camper as they allow you to adjust the back up to match the front.
@@THQAutomotive amazing! I’ll email you guys hopefully you shipping to Australia isn’t too expensive!
Interesting. Does no-one offer a cheap spring spacer like the 4x4 guys often use?
They're normally just a poly doughnut shape.
Yes we sell these too. Its not ideal though as you still have an over compressed spring. Its a cheaper fix for looks but doesn't help the ride quality.
So low suspension is not tüv improved right?
No sorry. They would pass as they are built for us by Bilstein. We've just never had them tested. Its probably time we do did though.
Transporter HQ yeah solow, with tüv would be awesome tho
What would it cost to fit the B14s on a T6?
We currently charge £250 for fitting
@@THQAutomotive thanks for coming back. Are the prices on your website for the kits?
@@ivorleak8823 Yes all the prices are on the website.
@@THQAutomotive cheers.
