BTDT. Your best source is someone with a parts van.I currently do not have this piece. However, It is not that bad to replace.

Take off that whole bar.loosen on the other side, too, and take it off from where it mounts to the bus in front of the spare tire. Also, when it broke you may have lost the rubber bushing and little plate that are on it. Be sure your used one you get has this, too. Reassemble. If you have difficulty sliding the new piece back onto the arm, Vaseline or clear silicone lube will slip it right on. If you try to do one side without taking off the other it is a lot harder, and you might get hurt.BTDT :) Adam P 81 Westy "The Brick " 70 Single Cab "Whitey" 74 Beetle "Ol Yeller" 73 Transporter (STILL at paint shop) 1988 Vanagon Wolfsburg 75 Campmobile "for sale' Used Vanagon Parts for sale (mostly aircooled) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger VanTill" <Rvantill@AOL.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Thursday, September 12, 2002 6:18 AM Subject: Stsbilizer Link Broke
