| Whilst on subject of being lowered, had a puncture in a rear tyre the other day. Using the jack supplied was a nightmare, couldn't get it high enough and van looked like it would fall off. I ended up using a lump of six inch timber under the scissor jack which did the trick. | |

| I got my local garage to do do it for me. As far as I'm aware you need to remove the suspension tortion bar from the front/rear beam turn it one spline then put everything back together. Have a search online should be some sites out there showing you what to do. ________________________________________________________________________________ Ginger man without a ginger van | |

| Ride is a bit more bumpy but the cornering is far better, doesn't wallow about so much. Seems to have made the steering a bit more responsive to. ________________________________________________________________________________ Ginger man without a ginger van | |
