I would also recommend the AlKo's very highlly. We also carry their shocks, and they are on our website. They are, in my opinion, the best value for the dollar in a Vanagon shock. In terms of overall performance, I would place them second to the Koni's (which we also sell), which I would call the best Vanagon shock of all. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT |
