VW Transporter Suspension Upgrades

At Dav‑Tec, we set up suspension on VW Transporter T6, T6.1 and T7 so your van looks right and drives right. Whether you want a sensible daily drop, a planted workhorse or a show‑stopping stance, we use SoLow coilovers and air ride to match your wheels, tyres and load.
Everything is fitted and set up by qualified engineers, so you leave with a van that feels more confident, comfortable and predictable on the road – not just lower for photos.

SoLow Suspension For VW Transporters

Dav-Tec supplies and fits SoLow suspension upgrades for VW Transporter T5, T5.1, T6 and T6.1 models, with options to suit daily drivers, camper builds, Kombis and vans running larger wheels.

Whether you want a sensible daily drop, a lower stance, improved handling or a full air ride setup, we’ll help choose the right kit for how the van is actually used.

We fit and set up the suspension properly, taking into account ride height, wheel and tyre setup, load, comfort and how the van needs to drive day to day.

SoLow Suspension – High Or Low? We Can Do Both!

As an authorized SoLow installer, we specialize in fitting SoLow lowering, lift, and air suspension kits. SoLow offers a blend of comfort, affordability, and enhanced handling. Forget about just a modest 50mm drop – we’re talking about a visually striking, practically scraping-the-ground, “how do you tackle speed bumps” kind of low.

SoLow’s coilovers are meticulously crafted in collaboration with Bilstein, renowned for producing the market’s leading VW T5/T6 coilover suspension. Adjustable up to an impressive 80mm drop, it delivers that aesthetically pleasing, almost photoshopped appearance.

But wait, there’s more! SoLow also caters to those looking to elevate their VW Transporter Swampers with lift kits. The B.I.G.H (Because I Got High) 45mm lift springs ensure your T5/T6 Transporter Swamper can navigate diverse terrains effortlessly.

Yearning for a ride on a cloud? Enter the SoLow AIR kit, a fusion of the top-selling SoLow dampers adapted for air suspension by Bilstein. This kit guarantees an unparalleled ride quality while offering an astonishing 145mm drop right out of the box.

Powerflex Bush Upgrades

Powerflex bushes are a useful supporting upgrade for VW Transporters, especially where worn factory bushes are affecting handling, stability or steering feel.

They help reduce unwanted suspension movement, giving the van a more controlled and predictable feel on the road. This can be especially worthwhile on Transporters running suspension upgrades, larger wheels, heavier camper setups or higher mileage suspension components.

Why upgrade Transporter bushes?

As the original rubber bushes wear, the van can feel vague, unsettled or less precise. Upgraded bushes can help restore control and improve the way the suspension works, especially when combined with a properly chosen suspension setup.

Supplied and fitted at Dav-Tec

We can supply and fit Powerflex bush upgrades as part of a wider Transporter suspension setup, or as a targeted upgrade where the vehicle needs more control and stability.
