    Cool Suspension upgrade T5 2008 Caravelle 2.5L manual

    Just wondering if any one has replaced/upgraded their suspension. I am not looking to lower the van just improve its ride and get rid of the "bang" when hitting a pot hole. I am now using maxxis vanpro tyres and they are a light truck tyre so this could be part of the problem/solution. By far the most Ks are the van (caravelle) are close to empty. any suggestions would be welcome.

    Welcome to the Forum , I doubt the tyres are the problem as our 2005 T5 used to "bang " also when hitting a pothole or sudden deep dip in the road , it hits the bump stops . Ours was lowered by King Springs at the Gold Coast it looked good and rode good except for the Bang ! There are lots of options available from the UK suppliers because of the huge number of T5's sold in UK . Very few Aussie companies will keep much variety , I am sure some other members will have some suggestions .
