VW Transporter T5 & T6 Handling Upgrade Packs
The best-selling van nameplate in history, the VW Transporter (Caravelle/Multivan/Kombi in different regions) can mean many things to many people. From commercial to campers to off-roaders; you can rest assured there’s a Transporter for everyone.
With so many applications, it’s no surprise that customisation and upgrades are popular.
One such upgrade is to lower the suspension and fit larger wheels, giving a ‘stanced’ look and reducing body roll, which the standard van is susceptible to.
One side-effect of lowering is the change of camber and toe geometry, and the resulting excessive and often expensive tyre wear!
For many years, Powerflex has offered geometry adjustable bushes for the T5/T6 which have proven extremely popular, and more recently has seen the demand for a full offering of wishbone bushes, allowing customers to cover all corners of the van in one convenient, cost-effective kit.
This week to meet this demand, we are launching two new handling packs, providing everything you need to enhance your T5/T6.
PF85K-1010G Handling Pack (Geometry Adjustable) contains the following parts for the on-car adjustability of all four wishbones:
- PFF85-1301G (front arm, front bushes)
- PFF85-1302G (front arm, rear bushes)
- PFR85-1310G (rear arm, outer bushes)
- PFR85-1311G (rear arm, inner bushes)
This allows a range of up to +/- 0.75° front camber and +/- 0.6° caster adjustment, and +/- 1.0° rear camber/toe adjustment, for improved handling and reduced tyre wear - especially on vehicles that have been lowered by more than 50mm.
PF85K-1010 Handling Pack (standard alignment) contains the following parts for those looking for the same increased bush performance and longevity but without adjustability:
- PFF85-1301 (front arm, front bushes)
- PFF85-1302 (front arm, rear bushes)
- PFR85-1310 (rear arm, outer bushes)
- PFR85-1311 (rear arm, inner bushes)
Both kits are available to order now.
