The Steel Wheel + Bilstein B14 Suspension Install
Description
What, as far as we're concerned, is the Holy-Grail, long distance, get-there-in-a-hurry setup; The S+S 18" Steel Wheel and Bilstein B14 Suspension.
We're fortunate enough to have had a plethora of suspension setups on numerous Volkswagen T5+T6 vans in the past. Budget coilovers, cheap air-ride set ups, expensive air-ride setups and of course, the Bilstein B14 coilovers. We believe this setup to be superior compared to standard shocks, air ride or budget Coilovers.
Being OE manufacturers for the majority of German car brands more expensive, luxury models, including BMW 3 series and up, the majority of Mercedes and also Porsche it's fair to say Bilstein's product and brand history needs no introduction.
The B14 Coilover is an adjustable setup which doesn't deteriorate with the height you choose to adjust them to. The setup can be wound low for a more purposeful stance, whilst at the same time, maintaining everyday usability as shown on our demo van in the photos below.
The B14 fits all variants of the T5 and T6, T26 through to T32. Installation takes place at the S+S Custom Haus and includes the balance and fit of our own 18inch Steel Wheel and Falken Tyre package. For the surgery to take place we will need your van in the studio for 3 days, use our online booking calendar to see our next available slot, or email thecustomhaus@stitchesandsteel.com.

Lead Times
Sporadic supply chains, fickle seasons, S+S growing, along with a slew of other factors have created a perfect storm for us to occasionally fumble our stock management (at this point in our journey). Just an honest heads up that if this product is in stock, and you want it, now might not be the worst time to pull the trigger. It may well sell out sooner than you think and it could be a while before you see it here again- We'd hate for you to miss out.
