Our Kingham when sitting on level ground sits nose down, the gap between top of rear tyre and plastic arch trim is about 60 mm higher at the rear than the front. Loaded or empty does not make any difference. Have tried dropping air pressure from AlKo suspension units but does not make any difference either. Has anyone else experienced the same thing?

Hi Mel , our Kemerton is exactly the same . I actually use it to good effect as pitches are rarely level and it gives you options sometimes to help level the van . I wouldnt worry they are probably all the same as based on the lwb version of the commercial van.

Every van I have had has been nose down, and if you look on sites nearly all are like it , hence the ramps

Yes, my current Warwick Duo and my old 2002 Symbol both had a rake on them (as it's called in F1).
It is usual and I like it. up!

This is meant to show the rake angle on the Red Bull F1 car today.

My rake angle with new rear springs looks like I've just done a 4 second run on Santa Pod drag racing strip.lol4.
