VW Transporter headroom

[FDF]

Does anyone know the maximum height of a standard T4 VW Transporter?
I know the max headroom of the garage, need to know if a VW Transporter will have enough clearance.

1940mm as standard, but it depends on the model and equipment, it can vary by 50mm.

Thanks for that Jug

The van should be OK, garage has 2 metre headroom. If I get stuck I'll lower the tyre pressures.

I've seen that happen, a guy reversed into a roller shutter door, took out half the door and did some serious damage to his van. It wasn't funny but oh how we laughed.

lol

did you get it in in the end.

our neighbours once went out on a bike ride, and on the way back they stopped off to do a bit of shopping, they drove into the multi-storey forgetting they hd bikes on the top, lest just say they had to spend a few 100 quid getting new bikes, and getting the dents out off the roof lol

yup, they're under 2m, but depends on which size, I think LWB models have stiffer springs at the back, so when unloaded it will be maybe a bit higher?

I've got a SWB, on std springs, but I intend lowering it (torque tube thing at one end, and springs at the other), its pretty easy to do, and springs are in teh region of £60-80
