Hi all, there are several posts re:air suspension currently active, I've chosen VB air assist for my Broadway!
However VB offer an uprated front spring that I may....stress may consider!

Not having driven a M H before; I do find the wallowing disconcerting though I imagine it's not half as bad as it feels to me and I'll no doubt get used to it?
But I'll ask anyway.....
Has anyone fitted these springs and felt the benifits?
I'm not given to throwing money at additional items, but I get a small discount if I do the front and back together!
I just need to get a feel for the General concencous about uprating suspension on a new vehicle....

As a tip to the insurance posts already got running; caravan guard don't have any restrictions or additional costs with regard to these mods...

Cheers John, that's reassuring..
Did you experience the wallowing that I've referred too.....is it a normal element of MH's that needs time to adapt to?

We had know wallowing at all as the VB was fitted before we picked the van up.
Our last van Ford Transit based wallowed badly, so I fitted Dunlop air suspension myself and there was no body roll at all after fitting.
