Subject:      Syncro springs available on December 9th - plus shock extensions!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I have a small run of 'reformulated' Syncro springs that will be ready on
December 9th.  These are a little less than 7% stiffer (originals were a
little over 10%) than the stock North American Syncro springs and will give
you around a 4cm lift over stock on a non-Westfalia vehicle - Westies and
other laden Syncros will see a little less lift due to the increased weight
of these vehicles.  The springs will be black powder coated (long lasting
finish).

- Front Springs only are $180 USD for the pair.
- Front Springs with rear 4cm shims are $250 USD for the pair.

I am also getting my machine shop to make some tops for the Old Man Emu
shocks (should work for stock Boge shocks as well) so that effective length
of the shaft is 4.5cm longer that they origially were.  This is so the
shock, at rest on a lifted vehicle, would be at the same position it
normally would be on an unlifted vehicle and allow the suspension to has as
much travel as it did orginally before it would 'top out'.  The negative
side effect is that it will allow the suspension to droop down a little
lower which may not to really great for the CVs over an extended period of
time.  Pricing will be available when these items are ready.
