The Stance+ Proline Coilover Kit for the VW Transporter T26/T28/T30 (T6/T6.1) is our flagship suspension upgrade. Unlike conventional coilovers, the front struts are base-adjustable in length, shortening or lengthening the whole unit to hit extreme ride heights while keeping 100% damper travel intact. Up to 150mm of drop on most applications. The T26/T28/T30 uses the slide-in clamp type front strut fitting.
What makes the Proline different is how it achieves its extreme lowering. Conventional coilover kits move the spring seat to lower the van, which reduces damper travel at lower ride heights and can lead to a harsher, more compromised ride. The Proline takes a different approach: the front strut body itself is adjustable in length, shortening or lengthening to set the ride height while keeping 100% piston rod travel at all times. You can run it seriously low and still have the full damper stroke working for you. Adjustment can be done while the kit is still fitted.
On the road, the performance improvement over factory suspension is significant. Gas-assisted, oil-filled FUCH dampers are set approximately 25-30% stiffer than standard, delivering flatter cornering, sharper turn-in, and noticeably better body control. NOK oil seals throughout ensure long-term durability, and the powder coated damper bodies are built to handle whatever the British weather throws at them.
The fixed damping rate is tuned specifically for this application at approximately 25-30% over stock, giving a firm, consistent ride character that suits the Proline's extreme lowering capability and keeps the van controlled and predictable at all times. The spring rates and damping rates are compatible with all loads from 2600kg (T26), 2800kg (T28) and the heavier 3000kg (T30).
Low vans are in a class of their own, and the VW Transporter T6/T6.1 is one of the most popular platforms in the van tuning and styling scene. The Proline kit is specifically engineered for the Transporter's heavier platform, giving you extreme lowering capability that's been developed and tuned for the weight and geometry of the T6/T6.1.
Fitting is a direct swap with your factory suspension, reusing OE top mounts and bearings. We always recommend fitting new top mounts. Copper grease the threaded base and collars before fitting to protect the threads and ensure easy future adjustment. The kit uses the factory drop links, however our short universal kits can be used if needed. Have it installed by a qualified mechanic and get the alignment reset on a proper laser alignment machine. 2-year warranty as standard.
