    It is actually going to be used for Andrew's vigilante road safety campaign. He has a speed camera coming in from Austria for it soon.

    Made it home this morning, well, work actually.
    Rear shockers are not compatible with the rear leafs. It was like a pogo stick on the highway, glad I didnt have boobs as my nipples were bouncing and I swear my backside left the seat a few times on the bumps!!
    Regoed now and pics will follow.

    No shock control huh? The KW dampers in my van have adjustable rebound on the rear, so you can stop that quite easily. I actually need to take an increment or two out of it to get to to pitch a bit more.

    What shocks are you going to get to fix the problem? Or are you going to get the ones in the van re valved?

    Its got KW coilovers to suit a Touran in the front and will get it on the hoist later this week as its due for the 22,500 service. I am not sure what brand of rear shocks it has yet.
    The rear leafs have been reset and the axle hasnt been flipped. One thing I did notice is that the rear bump stops look very original so it may even be bottoming out. I would think of getting my old favourites, Konis, although I am not 100% happy with the Koni kit that I fitted to the GTI. Also trying to get info about spring rates from the local supplier was fruitless...
    I will check the suspension later in the week.
    By the way, the local dealers were checking it out through their window today while I was picking up parts!!! (their loss!!!)
