And so it starts.....my new T5 LWB Motion

[Markee]

And thread from the dead!
I realize this post was many years ago, but do you still have info on the revised hose routing Markee?

I have a new valve on the way for my 2.0 single turbo, and would prefer to do everything all at once.

thanks in advance!

Hey mate, no I don’t have any info, can’t even find the TPI.

I can only imagine though, that yours being a single turbo will be very different to the twin turbo version that I have.

Hi Markee.

What an awesome thread. Really appreciate all the info.
I'm also looking to purchase some Kings Springs + Bilstein B6 Offorad shocks as well for my 2008 VW Multivan 2.5 BPC 4 Motion 6 speed manual.

The part numbers I have are:
2 x VN3 E242 - Bilstein B6 Front (Clamp Type Strut)2 x BE5-E035 - Bilstein B6 Shock absorbers
2 x KVFR 19SP - Raised King Springs [front]
2 x KVRR 18 - Raised King Springs [rear] (0 - 150Kg rating)

Are you able to share where you bought your:
- additional 25mm shock spacers
- diff lowering kit
from please? I see there are loads of places in UK/Europe selling them, but not so many over here?

Thanks!

Hi Jimmy, cheers for the nice comments.

The spring spacers came from these guys in the UK about 3 years ago.
Funvans - VW van sales - kombi conversions - modifications - servicing - parts - swamper lift kits
You could try contacting them to see if they’re still manufacturing them?

And I never actually ordered or fitted a diff drop spacer kit. Haven’t had any issues so far.

Legend. Thanks for the info Markee!!

I've found a supplier in the UK ��
Spacers --> VW T5 T5.1 T6 Lift Kit Suspension 25mm Swamper 2WD 4Motion Off Road Transporter | eBay
Diff drop kit --> VW T5/T6 Set of Diff Spacers - NO FIXINGS INCLUDED | eBay

Nice one. Just be aware that the diff drop kit is spacers only, you will still need to source longer bolts.

Transporter HQ used to supply the kit complete.
