i remember getting a roadworthy at govt dept and the car had cut springs (purchased this way believe it or not). bloke jacked car and wobbled wheels to check bearings, steering etc. his hand never went anywhere near the springs. passed first pop.
it's not legit and i don't think anyone would argue that. it gets a great result, you can't argue that

Thanks for your suggestion Goat and WB. This argument has gone a bit too far on this thread. I'm happy to debate suspension in the relevant section.

Rob, your van is gorgeous mate so lets keep the discussion on topic, as I am not too sure some people understand too much about legal liability of forum owners for information 'published' on their websites - regardless of if they agree with it or not.
Suspension mods such as cut springs can be discussed here

Nunc est bibendum...
Just to add to this as I have just been reading threads as been too busy to go on the site, we do have lower springs Rob, they came out of the yellow van, although they looked good, our roads are so rough that she kept scraping, you can have them if you need them for your van.
