    The KW suspension kit seems the go, looks excellent I must say. One question though, when you fitted the lowering blocks on the rear is there some kind of position marker on the leaves or is it a measure up job?

    Lowering blocks? It's a full kit with all the associated bracketry. There's a pin that the axle locates in on the spring. Very simple. You don't need to measure anything except the perch height on the front.

    for the as yet uninformed like me. how much mechanical styff in a caddy maxi van is from or could be pulled from a golf GTI.
    What about the front grill bumper section on a caddy it looks very basc could it be changed for something? That 'turkcom' site although I couldnt read there dopy lingo there was one that stood out, where would those body kits come from.

    Iam in the process of setting up a new business and thinking a dressed up Caddy with the KW lowered sspension, color coded (maybe) custom front end and other stuff would turn heads..
    Throw ideas and websites at me.

    We do live in the country and will travel LOTS of dirt roads so big rims thin tires are out.

    I have seen different front ends, but i'm not interested in changing mine, so i haven't sourced anything. As far as i know (and like i said, i haven't gone looking) the ones i have seen were "one off" custom type jobs.

    No. They're adapter brackets and plates. You're getting into an argument with a fitter/machist/toolmaker here about engineering terms.. Bad move. Hahaha.

    Sorry dude, but why colour code the Caddy when i could get a clutch and the internals balanced for my 16v?

    Because the colour coding could be done within a few weeks, as opposed to the 16V which will take a few................decades.... ooh snap hehe
