Have 🇳🇴 2 Seat utility wagon with red CSH springs (rear axle weight 1 355kg - 1 411kg), but run actual rear axle weights of around 1 750kg with rooftop tent (plus minus 150kg). Need to upgrade to stiffer rear springs and considering changing to black OEM triangle CSK spring (rear axle weight 1467 -1523kg) to avoid heavy paperwork in Norway by going aftermarket — Anyone with experience using the OEM CSK black triangel rear springs and similar wights? I run the aftermarket Fox 2.5 DSC Reservoir shocks.

Vehicle lean to left and sags today with full tank and tent, not scary to drive - handels quite well without tent despite being outside of range.

Not sure if Grenadier OEM weight intervals are based on empty tank and no driver. Weights I have given is full tank and 100kg driver. If this is the case the OEM black spring would still be soft for me, but maybe not hopeless...?

Anyone aware of other product with ride hight change below 25mm and ECE approval, German ABE, TÜV Teilegutachten. Looking for plug and play solution without doing lots of paperwork to keep it legal in Norway.

Thanks 🙏
