    Gentlemen, Performance Volkswagen magazine has a very well written article on lowering the caddy by turning the axle upside down

    It's always been the most effective way of doing it for vehicles with the axles sitting underneath the leaves

    Hey Jimmy, they have been doing that on the Mk1 Caddys for years now.
    Makes a lot of sense. Mine has had the springs reset rather than the axle flip.
    Cheers,

    That's how mine's done dude. The KW kit comes with a setup to just relocate it on top rather than "flipping" it over.
