A while back some wise listee reported on how much better his Vanagon rode after replacing the rubber components underneath his van. Does anyone have an article or link to exactly what gets replaced, where you acquire the parts(if other than VW), logical progression of R&R steps, and overall difficulty of the project. At 180k plus, it may be time to do this. also, cost of the parts and any machine shop time/labor would lhelp. Thanks, Dimwitted Moose and Flying Squirrel |
