Bilstein B14 coilovers part 1: VW Transporter T5 

That would be a great vid if doing yourself. Lots of work involved but helps keep the cost down

It’s doable though mate, just need to get the right tools, which even if probably cheaper than paying someone to do it lol

Thank you, I do my best😊

I certainly hope so Dylan, its something I’ve been undecided about for a long time, but needed doing, impressed so far though!

I started with them at the top setting as and drove on them a little as they will inevitably settle a bit. Then wound them down a bit at a time. I did it in a few goes. My main issue was the rear always looked like it was dragging its arse and thats the sole reason I went back to coil overs so that I can adjust it to look level. With 20’s might be an idea for you to also start at the highest setting as its a bigger wheel. Let my know how the komforts are. Good luck

Hi, I just put the jack under the shock or somewhere solid. Can be tricky as the van was already lowered. Just make sure it’s not going to slip off before you get the axle stand in place 👍

Hi, I’ve just upgraded last week to 19 inch lol. It’s a good question to be fair, when I put them on I adjusted them to where I thought they needed to be and they were spot on so not needed to do any more adjustment. It would probably be less of a faff to be honest as the adjuster is at the top and I can imagine it to be difficult if you didn’t. Thanks for commenting 👍

Hi, I put on cheap coilovers years ago and had it really low and found it really hard and bouncy which was uncomfortable and I eventually got fed up. I then decided to put a 40mm drop springs with standard shocks which was so much better until eventually the shocks were worn and needed to replace 4 of them, so rather than pay for 4 standard shocks I decided on the Bilsteins as expensive coilovers are much better than cheap ones. Also the other reason was as the van is a camper, it always looked like it was dragging its arse due to the extra weight in the back so by getting coilovers I could get the van looking level by adjusting the height. The Bilsteins are great on smooth roads but can feels crashy on our crap British roads but nowhere near as crap as the cheap coilovers. Hope that answers your question and thanks for the comment. Good luck with the T6 and hope you find something that might be of interest with my other vids. 🤙🤙
