How practical is this as a daily? I mean, can the air ride setup handle 'van life' trips throughout the year as well as daily 'a to b' transport? Or is it more for show? I'm tempted, but can't be doing with maintenance issues etc

@THQAutomotive 4 жыл бұрын

Totally practical, most people run their bagged vans as daily's. The next day I drove this to Dusseldorf, the following day to the French Alp's, then back home. I covered 2000 miles over 3 days driving. No issues at all.

@TTT-Turbo Жыл бұрын

Good morning, I'm currently looking at buying a VW crafter and I'm going to fully colour code it, silver. but I've heard Range rover wheels might fit these. It's a 2018 trendline van LWB. The wheels are the ones with the holes near the end and tyre size at the moment is 275 55 20. Will they fit a crafter? or what do I need to do to make them fit. Or am I better off just leaving them & buying proper wheels for it. These wheels are only £300 with good tyres. I would assume there load rated anyway because of the range rover size also eh. Many thanks in advance. Any help would be greatly appreciated Ian.

@THQAutomotive Жыл бұрын

Hello, I wouldn't think the range rover wheels with cover the 3.5 tons you need for the Crafter. They are also likely to be the wrong offset. I believe you would have too much poke.

Yes, its the same chassis.

@stevecolver3794 4 жыл бұрын

I realise that. I guess what I meant was, do you HAVE to cut and weld or is there a way to fit it (or a different strut kit) that doesn’t involve the cutting etc. I assume the cutting is to make room for the bags?? Does that also mean you don’t then have the plastic arch liner?

They're 20's. Your wheels it either too wide, not an ideal offset or your tyres are too big.

Hi do you get a more comfortable ride on air than coilovers at a reasonable ride hight when travelling around?

@THQAutomotive 2 жыл бұрын

Honest option, unless you are on the absolute sweet spot PSI wise with air, good coilovers are better.

in norway, modifying the chassis would instantly make it illegal for use on public roads. more lenient rules in the UK perhaps?

@@THQAutomotive that's not strictly true, chassis notching requires the vehicle be iva tested or at the least vosa informed of the work carried out to stay legal, if not wether it's picked up on at mot determines if you have to go for an inspection and concidering arch trimming has been pointed out to testers as unacceptable because it's at a "strength point" means it's a fine line that's down to the tester.

What’s unrealistic? Air suspension? A new van? This is what we do, it’s our job. It’s not what life is about that. Some can / want to send the money, most can’t / don’t. You can spending 10% of what this thing cost and still have a great, usable, fun vehicle. The good thing with these is, done well they are an investment, they don’t loose money. Right now they are actually going up and up.
