VW Caddy Maxi C20 LIFE TDI Rear Coil Springs

Post by Keanaz »

This was orginially a mobility vehicle, how the ramp has gone and the bumper replaced - I notice when hitting speed bumps/Pot holes I get a metal on metal claning noice, it's the rear coil spring that 2 bits are touching etc
Tried all over to find out which are the replacment ones - and no one seems to know?
all Googling shows replacement coil springs for the front and not the rear.

It seems these were fitted to take the extra weight of a wheelchair, over and above the leaf spring?

Any help please?

For WAV conversions, you'd be best speaking to the converting company who built the car. They often use custom made parts in their builds.

Is there nothing on the vehicle, WAV equipment or controls which might hint at the conversion company?

Found these but unsure if they will fit 100%:

My leaf springs are currently under the axle and I was told to flip to above the axle and do away with the coil springs?
