Shuttle info required please.

[Scott6]

Hi guys in new to the forum and also transporters.
I got myself a t6 shuttle with 20k miles last week and I'm looking to get some alloys and get it lowered on springs only for now, I'm hoping with it being low miles and on a 66 plate the springs will be ok.

I've got a few questions if anybody could help.
On the logbook it was stated as a t30 and when insuring it. But I've read online that there is only a t32 shuttle?

So when looking for springs and parts for the t6. What am I looking for? Most sites like vanstyle etc list parts for transporters or caravelle?

Also regarding wheels, this might be a daft question but will wheels from a t5/t6 transporter fit on the shuttle?
Do I need springs for a t30 or t32?

I've included a picture of the data plate from the engine for reference and under the dash.

Any info I'd appreciate. Thanks

I don't know the answer, but I picked up a Shuttle last week which also states it's a T30

Is it SWB or LBW

 

[Scott6]

Swb, it's the lowest 84 bhp s model if that helps.
Thanks

Re wheels you need to check load rating and obv stud pattern. T32 have bigger brakes which can cause some issues with clearance. T30 shouldn't be a problem

I'm guessing SWB prob are available in t30. Mines LWB and think only available as T32

Ether way your VW weight plate should be the truth

Ok thanks.

lol, t32 does not have bigger brakes as standard.

Well I thought that until someone posted it does. Know the 204 does though. Anyway I stand corrected.

yes, the 204 does. order a t32 with less than 204 and the standard fit brakes are the smaller.

Well I've got my alloys sorted, picked up a set of sportline alloys with Load rated tyres from a t6forum member earlier this evening.
Thanks for the input guys.
