Im planning on driving the latest Panda (a Twin-Air), to Cape Town. Uprating the suspension by fitting diesel springs, or, springs for the 4x4, would be one way to beef up the suspension (with higher ground clearance that would follow hopefully, although taller profile tyres will also help with that), but this begs the question: whats the best Panda spring in the parts catalogue? There seems to be about 16 springs, including the van, available. The new model is already uprated to a degree, admittedly (rides very well). The plan is to fit Koni shocks.
Also, does anyone know the differences there are in metal work around the suspension areas as apparrently the Cross/4x4s have beefed up panels. There is a new version coming along later this year, apparently, that has more wheel-movement and various tweaks for off-road work, but, we can't wait that long - the car is to be partially stripped down and rebuilt. Any advice would be much appreciated...
