Get the wheels Hunter aligned now?
I'll second this. My Caravelle chewed through some fairly new front tyres within a couple of thousand miles following a similar 60mm drop.
If there was one thing that could improve the service at @CRS Performance it would be if the alignment could be done in house after the suspension upgrade. That would truly make it a one stop shop for the perfect setup. Otherwise faultless in their work and after sale support
Read up on the Hunter threads as there's a right way and a wrong way for the operator to set up a T6... possibly as empty but give a look and you'll find the info on here as for tyre places anywhere with an Hunter alignment setup.
Yes defo do it immediately.. left mine for 2 months after the drop and regretted it
I was there last week and Steve said they are getting a Hunter setup soon. They’ve just taken on another garage unit close by so now have room.
This is being addressed as we realise it would finish off a perfect scenario , we are there fore opening a specialised alignment centre with tyre fitting bay and also corner weight balancing equipment , so the clients who really want a full treatment and set up of their chassis we can do it . update to follow
Our development ID Buzz is at the dealer ship waiting for delivery as well so lots to come from this side
Since buying the T6.1 (T28) campervan conversion, I have read many articles about what suspension is best to lower the van yet keeping the same drive quality, only to be more confused at the end of each. I decide, based on budget at the time, to go for chilli jam lowering springs. The springs gave us the look we were after however, made the ride seriously hard to the point we breaking rear springs.
After reading more on this forum CRS kept coming up. I spoke with Steve on the phone a few times about the issue I had, there was no hard sell, no negative feed back to what I had or what I had done to lower the van, just honest advice on how to put it right.
After a lot of discussion we settled on H&R coil over kit & H&R anti roll bars. We drove down from Aberdeen to get van fitted out. The work was completed in 2 hours and we were on our way home.
Even my wife, who drives the van day to day instantly felt the difference as did the poor kids who had to sit in the back! Since then we have been to Holland and over to west coast of Scotland and loved every minute of how the van drives / handles.
I would have zero issue recommending CRS to any novice, such as myself, to help get it right the first time.
Thanks again CRS.

Absolutely agree, excellent advice and service from the two Steve’s.
About 4 weeks ago we also visited CRS to have a lift kit fitted to our campervan, yes, Steve can go up as well as down..
Fitted Koni shocks and lift spacers , kept the original T32 springs.
On the drive home we both could feel the difference on the motorway, so stable, and also, now fun on the twisty lanes where we live, so a lifted van can drive better than the standard factory suspension.
Worked out cheaper too, inc fitting than most other lift kits available, so very happy.
Steve was also very gracious and accommodating with us, as we were delayed a few hours from our booked appointment.
Highly recommended.

it doesn't seem Steve needs the reviews and recommendations with the business coming in and the followers here, but credit where it is due, CRS Performance know their stuff! Usually i am a 'get 3 quotes' kind of guy, but the reviews speak volumes so i jumped in. I rang Steve with my issue. The saggy rear end. A converted camper, added bike rack and the caravan. It left the handling feeling very insecure and the steering very 'loose'. I am not one for lowering. I like the ride height, as VW intended, and i'm not fussed on the street cred (each to their own on lowering. Its cool, but not for me) and am more about practicality. I have a T30 so Steve recommended the Koni upgrade and Active shocks, plus T32 rear springs. Difference is amazing both on handling with and without the caravan. Money very well spent. Don't go anywhere else. Thank you Steve!
