Can I put spring compressors on front suspension, before starting, to simplify the removal of the front suspension unit.
It seems a lot of effort to move hub assembly out of the way
Here we have 4 x springs and 4 shocks from a 2023 T6.1 T30 with just 2.5k miles.
£100
Reason for sale. Air suspension fitted.
Removed with tlc.
Cardiff area.
I need a new shock on nearside front. Am after a pair or single to replace it. Springs are fine apparently.
Any advice or do I just buy one from bilstein direct - am assuming this is the way.

Just putting new disc’s and pads on my 2020 6.1 Kombi 4 motion LWB and there seems to be a lot of oil around the shock on the N/S..
Is this normal amount or has the shock had its day?? (Please see pics)
Cheers for any advice offered.

I have had a few transporters in the past & a couple of LT's and the ride has been fine, but this van is such a hard ride I have to avoid potholes & cats eyes on every journey.

I have a 2017 Transporter SWB which I am lower by 40mm all round with lowering springs only. The rear shocks I want to replace with OEM ones. Looked around and can get delivery mileage ones at a good price.

T32 Koni Active Shocks with H&R 40mm lowering springs.
Supplied and subsequently removed by Steve at CRS Performance. Covered less than 8k miles. These are a great upgrade and in full working order.

I thought it would be a good idea to expose this...
We are now holding stock of type 2 transporter shocks , Koni don’t generally carry them anymore. But will make if sufficient quantities are purchased.
