Mk6 Rear Leaf Springs

Postby artisan998 » Sat Nov 22, 2014 2:49 pm

Ive got a 54 plate SWB medium high top with single leaf springs. My question is can i fit new 2/3 leaf springs with little or zero modification ? And where is the best place to get them without being skanked on the price.

Cheers

I think you will find all rear leaf springs for a Mk6 van will fit. I changed my singles for doubles from an XLBase hi roof,no problem.
Just make sure you start soaking the bolts now :) :) and get yourself a good extension socket bar.
