Just joined the club....couldn't resist! Operation B14 will commence next week!! Just got them delivered this morning!!
Right, honest answers please. I have a T32 Kombi, which I have had lowered on 40mm H&R springs (which improved the handling and took away the jitteriness of the ride) but the ride is has hard as hell. When fully loaded it is ( as you would expect) a lot more forgiving, but generally it's fairly lightly loaded and therefore bloody awful. The big question is, will fitting B14s or B8s give me the softer, more refined ride I'm after?
I will say, I'm not part of the "scene", I'm not interested in "slamming" it to the ground, nor the "look", I will not wave at you . I want a nice comfortable ride, without everything rattling. I don't want to wince at every pot hole and slight bump in the road. What I want is the ride I got in my Vito, without the rust, brake failure, and dodgy gearbox.......etc etc.
As I say, honest opinions please.
17" Devonports Rule!
Looking to have mine lowered on B14's @BognorMotors How long does it take and what's your current lead time ?100% Yes. I bet one of our vans on B14's and 20's rides better than your on H&R's and 17's. You will not believe how well it rides. If you're local, Ill let you have a drive

That's a great price with the four alignment included.Hello, providing the kits are available from Bilstein, leadtime is about a week. Our price is £1200+Vat. This includes, a full four wheel laser alignment, and a free height adjustment further down the line if you want it changing. We offer free courtesy car/van etc. Job takes approx 5-6 hours - This includes initial setup, at which time we send you pics(or show if you're on site), so you can amend the height if necessary, then full roadtest and alignment.
I am joining the B14 club however not gonna be till the end of Nov, earliest that vanstyle can fit me in. After reading everything on here I can't wait. Probably only going to drop 50 mm and staying with the Devonports but going to get em powder coated in a dark gunmetal colour. Blooming ell how am I gonna fill me time from now till then. Hmmm I know I'll check out some more threads on here and spend more cash I don't have........ help I'm addicted, is there a T6 anonymous?
T28When you say rides perfectly, how does it compare to the original setup? Also, is it a T32?
