The ST X are a great kit, irrespective of price. The fact that they are so well priced is just the icing on the cake really.Steve we have discussed these before
We also discussed the price as well if you remember
The results you achieve are either brilliant or not the price should not be the final factor
Cheers
I went with the H&R/Koni coilover kit Andy. The ST X just don’t go quite low enough for my van.Hi Chris
Which set up did you plump for in the end
Thanks
I'm really tempted with the CRS offering, I currently have Stance Ultras fitted with about 85mm drop on my LWB T32.I went with the H&R/Koni coilover kit Andy. The ST X just don’t go quite low enough for my van.
I haven't had the opportunity to try the Twin Monotube Project kit yet, but I will. I just haven't had the opportunity yet. Once I do I will update my other thread with the findings.Chris
Did you try the Chilli jam set up just as comparison
I understand you wanted the T32 set up
You're closer to me than Steve and whilst I haven't officially announced it (I will be doing so this weekend), I'll be supplying and fitting everything that Steve @CRS Performance can, I'll be an authorised (in fact the first) CRS fitting centre. If you can wait a week or so you'll be welcome to come and have a test drive in my van, it'll be running the Koni/H&R setup at about 80-85mm down on 20s. We may be able to do something about the rubbing too, but if we can't solve it on the day we can advise on next steps to take to stop it, whilst maintaining the stance you have now.I'm really tempted with the CRS offering, I currently have Stance Ultras fitted with about 85mm drop on my LWB T32.
I find them quite noisy, clunky and harsh over big bumps.
I think I need to raise them a little as the occasional tyre rub annoys me too (275/40/R19).
Not sure if a 15mm or so raise will make much difference.
I hear such good things about the H&R Koni setup, I might just have to bite the bullet.
Justifying the cost is a bit difficult though.
Any feedback on your setup would be most welcome and help me decide I'm sure.
TIA

Really sorry, I’ve just realised that I didn’t directly answer your question about feedback! Have a look at the post linked below, I haven’t fitted the kit to my van yet, this will be happening next week, but the linked post/thread talks about my suspension journey.I'm really tempted with the CRS offering, I currently have Stance Ultras fitted with about 85mm drop on my LWB T32.

Alternatively, if you don't want to be as low as you are now, we can fit the ST X kit, which is brilliant, but only goes 65-70mm down depending on the application. If you're interested, drop me a PM so we don't completely hijack this thread!
I see you have the USB socket in the compartment next to the gearstick. May I ask how you did this or where your got it please. My van has a factory fitted comfort dash But the USB socket is in the top glovebox on the passenger side which annoys the hell out of me...

The van is looking good, Nigel.Not today but yesterday.
Paid a visit to Steve @CRS Performance to have the H&R coilover kit and Koni shocks + H&R ARBs installed.
Didn't want the van slammed as still need a bit of wiggle room for when I load the van for my fishing trips. I think the end result is just right.
I would highly recommend.
