[@_nokzzz_]

Looks Beautiful 🔥 What Springs are those? How much mm lowering?

[@stevecockton6624]

Can't stop watching this video now, inspires me to get out and just do it ! Change of plan from my last post, was looking at a good older LWB 2.5, but like hunting for Unicorns. So a newer 2.0 140 may be the way to go, to get away from maintenance costs. Who do you get all your parts from, any specific good suppliers - heard there's a lot of Cowboys out there, selling cheap parts and doing a botch job on other services. So on Lowering when you first got the Van, just springs or anything else to do. I suppose this was getting ready for 20" wheels - is that the best size ? Apololgies for all the questions, but just starting out so trying to get my head around it all.

[@SteveField]

I am glad the content is inspiring 👍. That’s really great to hear. I can highly recommend you checking out @TransporterHQ for any parts as a 1st port of call. They have always exceeded expectations for me and supply quality parts. When I lowered the van in the 1st instance, with it being brand new I could rely on the shocks being ok so just installed the Ebach Pro 50mm lowering springs. The 140bhp derivative was always a popular choice so can agree it’s a good model to get👍

[@scottcyoung]

Steve, got a link to what your VW started out as? RAC are selling off their vans from 2016 to 2018. T32 150 DSG but mileages are from 113k to 140k all tailgate. £14k to £17k plus Vat

[@stoem]

I hope people appreciate how much work goes into making these videos. Hats off mate. Question: do you regret not adding more options to the new van, ie LED headlights, sidebars and so on, all the things that could have been factory fitted? Or was it a case of fitting new extras as cashflow allowed it? Keep up the good work.

[@SteveField]

Thanks very much 👍😎. I do regret not holding on for the factory LED headlights for definite! This option really should be standard as the performance of the standard unit it so poor. I have overcome this in the main with the Transporter HQ lights but the main beam side of them are still halogen for legal reasons so it’s still not going to make up for the factory LEDs. No other regrets at all as I have enjoyed the process of upgrading. The only reason I didn’t have the headlight option was that when I ordered my T6 they had match to my full list of requests with the exception of the headlights and it was due 4 months earlier than a fresh order. As I didn’t know the headlights were so poor I went for it but as I say I would definitely have waited and had the headlights now.

[@restyplaza2020]

How much did it cost you for the headlight, back light, bumper. Thank you very much

[@SteveField]

🙏thanks David. I have to say transporter HQ is a one stop shop for all your suspension needs. They have worked on a high volume of vans and offer products for the extra weight from conversions too.👌.

[@andyarmitage2895]

Wow this is such an amazing inspirational video and so well shot, I only discovered your channel recently but I am hooked I love how much you love your van :) we recently got a 2019 T6 California Ocean in Acapulco blue and it is by far the nicest vehicle I have ever driven. A couple of questions ours has the original wheels on just like yours had, if I changed them to the Navis silver wheels would this affect the ride comfort of the van on its original wheels as I like how it drives now and would not like a really hard ride so any advice would be much appreciated, I assume the headlights and tail lights are from TP HQ? So do I change the wheels and lights, sadly I am not as good with fitting this stuff as you obviously are so I would ask TP HQ to do it for me, I do fancy the front bumper and the grill with the stripe in as well. Damn this could be expensive, I love the air suspension but no doubt the cost would horrify me :) also would a remap improve fuel consumption as I get an average of 34.5 to the gallon. Thanks Andy

[@SteveField]

Hi Andy, Thank you and apologies for the very late reply! I had missed the comment. I would say that in my opinion the ride on the 20” wheels did not get any firmer than in was but it’s a very mixed bag on that when I read feedback on forums. I can def say it did not ruin the drive one bit. And it transforms the look. Transporter HQ for all of my lights and bulbs up to this video…. I have since added the new Travelin lite rear 6.1 lights now and so far very pleased with them. (You may have seen in a recent video).

[@mattclarke6773]

Have you considered swapping the front seats? It transforms the driving experience. I have electric Panamera seats in my 5.1

Steve, your rear view mirror - is it the Auto Vox V5 Pro ? Got the same style van with no rear window, so no mirror inside, need some sort of mirror bracket to attach Auto Vox adaptor, any clues ?

[@SteveField]

Hi Steve, sorry for late reply! I have the Autovox AV1 which I think is discontinued now but the it also hooks onto a standard rear view mirror. You could pick up a standard rear view mirror on Amazon perhaps so you can fit and attach your Autovox.

[@stevecockton6624]

[@SunshineMix101]

'Another great vid' Steve. Following your project played a large part in my decision to get my own Shuttle. While it will be a long time before I can do any of the mods I'd like, I have plenty of ideas thanks to your channel. Also, as a slight aside, did you ever consider installing a dual exhaust and using the other outlet for a diesel heater? I'm not sure how feasible that would be.

[@SteveField]

🙏thank you buddy as always. It’s really nice to hear my videos play a part in some of the things you want to do😎. I Have considered a mod where I’ve seen a rear bumper with a custom design rear exhaust (it may be fake) it’s not cheep but it’s subtle and looks tasteful but I’ve never sat down and properly taken a better look yet… come from only one place that I’ve seen called customvanz. Regarding diesel heater. I would love one! One thing holds me back. When we sleep in the awning we would not be able to use the heater as the exhaust fumes would end up in the tent😬. Sometimes when we put kids into bed we sit in the back of the van and that’s we’re it would be useful but we’ve relied on an electric heater for this reason.

[@sikingkar4179]

Hi Steve, im new to the van life looking to get a van/camper what do you suggest? i like what you have done sweet!!!

What are the first set of wheels. I quite fancy those. And the headlights but I would have to get a garage to fit them I guess.

[@SteveField]

First set of wheels were Vossen CVT 20” 👍

[@heganm]

Hi Steve, Thank you for sharing this. I have become a fan of your van through these videos. I am curious about something please. Was the van modified to fit the air ride suspension, apart from looking smoking hott, were there comfort/ride benefits to the installation? I cant wait to get myself a Transporter now and get busy building. LOVE that colour as well.

[@SteveField]

Hi Hegan, Really sorry I missed your comment and this reply is so late!!! however I do appreciate your kind feedback and can say the van did not need to be further modified to accept the stock arride system... it massively improves the drive when you are daily driving a 60 -80 mm drop from stock. nothing else compares and then you can still raise up and arrive at the unexpected locations with the front bumper in tact 💪😎

What' s your thoughts/opinion on the DSG gearbox rather than manual. Been advised that theyr'e a moneypit if they go wrong, as I'd be buying an older van trying to get as much info as possible

[@SteveField]

Hi Steve. Well I have to say I am very impressed with the DSG and I couldn’t imagine not having it now. Very clever drive chains management, but I can also imagine it would be extremely expensive to repair/replace. I have to say I don’t know anybody that has had trouble with one though!! I would have it again 👍👍

[@elchibekzhusupov2694]

Where I can buy new facelift like this

[@stevecockton6624]

When you got your front and rear spoilers, did they come painted from the retailer or did you have to go to a bodyshop. Asking as it seems there's a lot that come primed but few painted.

[@SteveField]

Hi Steve, I had the front spoiler painted by the VW body shop and the rear spoiler was supplied and painted by Leighton Vans so both were ready to be fitted but they would ordinarily be supplied in primer.

[@stevecockton6624]

Awesome job mate, given me some great ideas. Why do the rear windows instead of buying a Caravelle ? Think someone has a serious wheel fetish though, you need some therapy !

[@SteveField]

I think you rite 😂. Will look into some therapy🤣. I didn’t go for the caravelle for few camping design reasons but now some of those reasons would not have been an issue in the end.

Or 255. Wanted 40 for the extra comfort as a lot of people say 35 is a bit too harsh.

You can run a good deal of tyres on 40-50 mm drop👍. I have in this video….kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmjTmYqIg5h0has 275/35/20 and the van is lowered by 50mm in the video so you’ll see that you could even get a 275/40/20 on without any bother.
