Are they the original springs cut down? If they are new springs, check the models out with the manufacturers. Infact a lower van will help a little, not on rough tracks though!!! But with keeping the centre of gravity low, Luke

You'll get stopped by every Plod that you pass. They'll see how low the van is sitting and immediately think you're over weight.

if it is lowered just get need sping, lowering eill not help with load weight as it will be to low nd cut wheels and arches.

Get van normal van lol, my first thought on a lower van is speed freak, I would be worried at has been hammered,
