Rear sway bar

[BajaSportsmobile]

John was correct, there is not much to be done, cost effectively to improve the Advanced 4x4 conversion - referring to the front suspension.

You could replace the front springs and get some improvement or get Chris' front system and get even more improvement.

The rear suspension of a Ford van is the rear suspension of a Ford van...

My point now is that you are trying to settle the rear suspension with a sway bar or something. Your FOX shocks can do that with a re-valve by anyone that knows what they are doing. Trying to do anything before you install your new rear springs would be getting ahead of yourself.

I think those rear springs are going to make a big difference for you.

Baja - I know there were some individuals with advanced conversions that came to Agile for new springs and shocks and left happy which was why I contacted Agile in the first place. Maybe my question wasn't general enough but all I was looking for was a better ride out of the current setup which was all I thought that the RIP kit was intended to do.

I have a local guy up here that works with Fox shocks and I am sure he could do a revalve but I dont know what that means exactly. What should I ask him to do to get the results your talking about?

I am looking forward to getting the new springs under here and will be sure to report back on my findings.

I agree with Ramsey, don't do anything until the new springs are in.

I noticed that your sig says that you are running stock E350 wheels. Do you have any spacers in the rear?

 

[Jsweezy]

No, just stock axle width.

I added a set of Roadmaster's which made big difference in body roll and gave me the ability to adjust the rear height once I reached my final build weight.

Might be ok for some, but they don't make em for Dually Vans... Or trucks.


Let us know how they work out.

Ok will do.

Does anyone else's vans sway to and fro when ever cars pass by and your stationary?

Most do. Only properly setup ones don't.

You haven't put the new springs on the rear yet...

Have you done anything to the front yet???

It all adds up.

I haven't don't anything to the front yet because I was going to just put a new front suspension on it. Washington county took that money so now I'm trying to do everything else before touching the front so I can do a full swap.

And I know I haven't put the new springs on yet but I'm not the only one with a 4 inch lift and blocks. I'm sure most of the quadvan quigley owners on here don't have a full spring pack. If there's doesn't do it, then I was wondering what they had that I didn't, other than a different from suspension.
