Traveller suspension

Post by colonel mustard »

Morning all,
I am now looking at pulling the suspension parts together for assembly. What is the current thinking or have you used for new shocks? I know the rears are longer than saloon and are no longer available so what are people using? Also I assume the fronts will be the same as the saloon?
Any advice welcome.
Thanks in advance

I used KYB Gas-a-Just on my Traveller. I also fitted hi-los and lowered the car slightly.

I've got one, possibly two van/traveller original Girling rear shocks available, one is NOS ..

Will have a look if interested
