Hi all, another British gas van with a few mods.
I have owned the van for about 3 ish years now and it gets used daily, I do about 250+ miles a week in it to work and back.
The mods and bits to following posts have all been done over the last 3 years.

Fitting seats from a Mercedes A-class.
Got the front and rear seats from eBay, sold the rears and caddys seats, welded brackets to the existing seat bases as they are much narrower than the caddys.

How much did you lower the front/back?

No idea how low tbh I know its a good 35mm+.
It just rubs every now and again if you hit a dip in the road at speed. The stance+ kit drops quite a bit after fitting too. I used the original hangers on the back rather than the ones that came with the stance+ kit to make it lower on the rear. The stance+ kit is very harsh and it's a bit of a pain in the arse on the road, to the point I'm thinking of lifting it up and swampering it.
