>Andrew, >What's IRS and LT?

IRS is independent rear suspension. Swingaxle is independent if the springs allow independent movement of each wheel, as VW's torsionbar setup does (I think the early Corvettes used transverse leaf springs, so their swingaxles were NOT independent... and there is no such thing as "semiindependent"!).

The LT is VW's big van, first model produced in the 80s. -- Andrew Grebneff 165 Evans St, Dunedin, New Zealand 64 (3) 473-8863 <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Fossil preparator Seashell, Macintosh & VW/Toyota van nut
