Stay flexible with Ford Transit Custom suspension from KW
The Ford Transit Custom (type NXN/NRN) is valued above all for its robust, user-friendly and practical handling. If you value a lot of cargo space, flexibility and a functional design, this van is the right choice. We at KW suspensions also like it uncomplicated: That's why we offer our driving dynamics all-rounder for the Ford Transit Custom with all-wheel and front-wheel drive (except electric/plug-in hybrid variants): the KW V3 coilover suspension.

The factory suspension
The Ford Transit Custom is an indispensable commercial vehicle for fleets or private camping expansions. However, when fully loaded, the standard suspension can present challenges: Low spring reserves reduce comfort. Customers also report increased body roll when cornering. Nevertheless, it is particularly important for vehicles that regularly transport heavy loads to have a safe, comfortable suspension.
Our KW product
Our KW V3 coilover kit counteracts the suspension problems of the Ford Transit Custom. Thanks to separately adjustable compression and rebound, the damping adapts ideally to changing loads. The result is significantly reduced body roll, superior road holding and more control in every driving situation - even with maximum load. The KW V3 also lowers the Ford Transit Custom.

Technology Highlights
Customized lowering
This coilover suspension offers maximum possible lowering, customized to your vehicle model. You can also change this at any time after installation.
Adjustable rebound (low speed)
You'll notice the difference with every click! Here, you can adjust the low-speed rebound with 16 clicks. This adjusts the ride characteristics, making them either harder or more comfortable.
Adjustable compression damping (low speed)
You can fine-tune the low-speed compression damping even after installation. The vehicle's handling and stability will benefit from 12 clicks.
Composite spring disc
The height-adjustable KW spring plate is made from a resistant and friction-optimised polyamide composite material with a stainless steel insert. In contrast to anodised aluminium adjustable spring plates, the polyamide composite material prevents possible oxidation.

Is a suspension upgrade worthwhile for the Ford Transit Custom?
Yes, but it depends on your specific requirements and how you use the vehicle. The Ford Transit Custom is stable straight out of the factory. However, its performance can be affected when used as a camper or motorhome, or when carrying a heavy permanent load. Upgrading the suspension in the Ford Transit Custom reduces body roll, ensuring higher driving stability and a more direct driving feel.
What is the best suspension upgrade for ride quality?
This depends on your preferred ride characteristics. If you want the best balance of comfort and dynamic handling, a premium coilover kit is the best fit. Kits such as the KW V3 significantly improve both comfort and handling, providing the best possible driving experience for a van. They also allow for ride height adjustment.
Can you lower a Ford Transit Custom?
Sure! Our Ford Transit Custom suspension upgrade is a straightforward way to lower your van. The KW V3 enables you to independently adjust the ride height, as well as the compression and rebound damping forces. This gives you complete control over the ride quality and ground clearance of your Transit Custom.
Is KW better than OEM?
An OEM suspension is the product of the highest level of engineering skill and offers impressive performance straight out of the box. A KW coilover suspension, on the other hand, provides a notable enhancement to driving dynamics for specific requirements. Here, the driver can customise the driving characteristics. This goes far beyond standard settings.
