Subject:      Question about Air Shock Technology
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Hi Volks:

Since my Westy is too tall to fit into our buildings underground parkade, I am interested in whether electric air shocks can be used to change the height. Some questions:

1. Do air shocks eliminate the need for a coil spring? 2. Can they be adjusted on a regular (twice daily) basis without failing? 3. Can they be used to Lower the van below "normal" - as well as raise it? 4. Can they be used in a very cold climate?

TIA
