On go the steel wheels and up goes the ride-height. The acid-test; will it get up the parent's driveway?
Only just, but yes. Certainly better than before when we had no hope of getting up the driveway for a Sunday dinner!
One downside (although I'm thankful we spotted it) is one of the rear V-Maxx shocks has let go. It's shock-absorbing properties are still okay, but the top mount has all but fallen apart, not good.
This is what happens when buying cars, especially modified by the previous owner; can you be sure what you're letting yourself in for? We test drove the van with it full of tools and thus forgave the odd clonk - in hindsight this was a mistake. It wasn't until driving around with an empty van that you begin to hear noises out of the ordinary. I'm annoyed, but it can be rectified with a fresh pair of shocks - I might even upgrade to better quality KW items.
