Over the weekend I replaced the carpet with sound deadening mat, 1/2" birch, and waterproof laminate. I knew there would be some added weight. I noticed a slight sag in the rear after re-installing bench seat. After measuring seams to be close to 1" difference. I still have one captain chair to install after some slight modification. Is there a solution for this sag? Adjusting torsion bars in front or upgrading shocks/suspension? I still have awning plus and camping gear/accessories that will come along on our adventures. Looking for any suggestions? Thanks!

Easiest and cheapest is fitting some air shocks to the rear and pumping them up to level the ride.

I got the info from the Canada site - http://delica.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=18722&p=139874&hilit=air+shocks#p139874

Only buy one as they come in pairs. BTW, the photo shows white, you'll get black..[/QUO
I'm going to install captain chair this evening. I had 3/8" SS plate sheared and punched holes to raise the captain chair up 3/8" to clear finished floor. I'll have a look at weight when this is complete. Possibly install/replace shocks over the weekend. Next Thursday we travel south to Suwannee Roots Revival in Florida. Thanks for all the help and suggestions!
