Re: What did you do to your van today?
Hardly post on this topic but had a broken KW coil spring, both gone in fact, so replaced with uprated KW springs to accommodate the extra weight of the 3.6 lump and dsg gearbox, what a difference! And of course new strut top mounts and bearings! Was reminded how awkward it is to get at the 3 strut top bolts on the drivers side ... especially with king kong size hands

Re: What did you do to your van today?
Got a new windscreen fitted looks really weird with it out !
And fitted a whiteline 24mm anti roll bar, and put it on the most stiff setting!
But haven't really noticed a huge improvement to be honest, was expecting more by the reviews I heard about it , might be just due to the van being axle flipped and low and having ajustable dampers set to fairly stiff, or it's possible a drop link is Abit worn but not sure it was worth the 180 pounds o paid for it

Re: What did you do to your van today?
Drove to Wales last night to camp and check out Elan Valley today, what an amazing place.. and the road from there to Aberystwyth was like a racetrack! Van worked amazing as a camper just chucked a double airbed in no problem and a ton of blankets to keep warm
