Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


Hey now Folks,
I sure enjoyed my bus, and all of the trips I've taken in it,
but... At this time, I have every speck of suspension and front end out of
her....
And I have grave doubts, that I can fit all of the pieces back in...
I hope the wheels still point in the right direction... :)
The question I`d like to put out, is on the
Eccentric washer on the upper control arm shaft in the upper control arm...
(of course :)
Upon removal, I noticed that my bus did not have any eccentric washers at
all...
It`s an 85 westy.
What exactly do they adjust and should my particular bus have them?
Are they dealer only?
Does anyone on the list have any experience with this matter?
Thanks, as always!
John Carpenter
SLC, UT
85 Westaru...
