Be careful if yours is 4WD, as you can end up with front drive shaft problems - do a search and check out Bigdaddycain's post on the subject.Richard hird wrote:Does anyone out there no where to get a set of lowering springs and shocks to help reduce pitch and roll. Thanks Rich

Re: lowering bongo suspension
Your Bongo sounds as if it has been pimped a tad, any chance of a picture? and could you please give your location, as this helps the anoraks point you in the right direction as to where is the best place to find parts etc

it has been pimped a bit, just not quite enough yet. I'm in Harrogate, N.Yorkshire. I'm new to this so i'll try and get some pictures posted shortly.

Are those tyres up to spec on load index?
At least 92 front and at least 96 rear?
Some folks have reported problems with under-rated low profiles.

yes they have mate. the first set split, almost like someone had slit them with a stanley knife. makes them expensive though
