Hi there I've got a 2006 renualt kangoo van that seems to be riding
Low on the back does any body know
How to solve this problem. There's no springs on the rear only shocks.

These vehicles have torsion bar rear suspension, which is effectively a spring bar that runs transversely across the back of the vehicle.....it is secured in the middle, and the axle trailing arms are fixed to this with splines.
If the vehicle has had continuously very heavy loads, then the springing ability is compromised...basically it gets tired.
However, some of the boy racer fraternity think its a good idea to turn the axle arms one spline, which lowers the car ride height - and ruins the handling at the same time.

The Morris Minors and early Oxfords had torsion bar suspension on the front, brilliant it was you could wind it up and down at will as it had a 'vernier' adjustment on the ends of the bars consiting of a bolt through the end bracket which pushed against a stop.
