Hi,
I've got new shocks on the back of my L400, but it bounces a bit when I hit a depression in the road Shocked

Not a problem as it is very comfy to be in Smile

The question is, I`m going to collect a twin axle caravan and was wondering if it'll be okay to tow ( will the caravan be bouncing up and down or will things improve with the extra weight ) :?

Thanks Box1

...And I bet they were from Milners? theirs just don't seem to be the right spec for the L400.

Can anyone suggest a proper set of springs and shocks that will cope when pulling a large caravan then :?

and unclebaz your springs are crackered, be interesting to see the difference once you fit your new springs Smile
