No, the VW T4 Transporter does not have front coil springs, unlike most traditional suspension setups. Instead, the T4 features front torsion bars in the suspension system. Torsion bars are a different type of suspension system that uses bars to twist and provide the suspension movement, rather than traditional coil springs. The torsion bars in the front allow for ride height adjustment, making it relatively easy to raise or lower the front of the vehicle by adjusting the torsion bar bolts.
The rear suspension of the VW T4, however, does use coil springs, and these can be replaced or upgraded with lowering kits to adjust the ride height and improve handling.

What are the best lowering springs for a VW T4, and how much can I lower the van?
When considering the best lowering springs for a VW T4, it’s important to focus on quality and the desired drop. The most popular options are typically from trusted brands like Eibach and H&R, known for their durable and performance-enhancing lowering springs. These springs improve handling, reduce body roll, and give your van a sportier look, while still maintaining ride comfort.
Depending on your needs, you can lower your VW T4 by anywhere from 30mm to 70mm using lowering springs. A 40mm to 50mm drop is often a good balance for improved aesthetics and ride quality without sacrificing too much ground clearance. For those looking to go lower, a 70mm drop can give your T4 a more aggressive stance, but it may require additional modifications like shortened shock absorbers to maintain comfort and performance.
