Ok so if you swap to a K & L beam, my understanding is that your torsion tubes are closer together meaning your lowest one is somewhat higher than a bay type. There by giving you greater clearance when lowered.
So having said that my van is a '71 which uses the later beam pattern so a straight forward swap is not possible? If then i'm stuck with the later beam how do you stop it hitting the floor. Do you have shocks with built in springs to stiffen it up. I like the ride I have (T2D 3.5" balljoint dropped spindles) but I think its the softness of the springs that allow it to hit the floor when i've two people up front and going over a bad road surface. I have fitted adjustable shocks and its helped a bit but not got rid of the problem.
