Mk8 lift kit on Mk9 Transit 350 ecoblue ?

Postby RWDOffroadtransit » Tue Mar 11, 2025 11:48 am

Hello, would anyone know if the suspension set up for the mk9 extra long wheel base high top is the same as the mk8 equivalent? I'm wanting the fit a 50mm lift kit however no one has made one yet? But if they're the same I would then buy the mk8 spacer kit and fit that. Many thanks in advance :)

Define mk9?

There isn't a mk9 yet?

Hi! From what I’ve seen, the suspension setup between the Mk9 and Mk8 XLWB high top models is very similar, but there may be slight differences in geometry or component sizing. It’s a good idea to confirm compatibility with a suspension specialist or someone who's already done the swap before fitting the Mk8 lift kit.

Some users have reported success, but minor adjustments or custom brackets might be needed depending on the kit.
