Subject:      89 Wolfsburg GL and 84 Westy spring swap?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Hello all,

It has been a few years since i've been on the list, but it is nice to see that it is still quite active. My current question is that I am talking to someone who has an '89 Wolfsburg GL passenger van about trading springs because I want to lower my '84 westy while he wants to raise his '89. Questions:

* Will the springs from the '89 be too soft for my '84, and ... * Will my existing shock absorbers (oem) work with the springs from the '89?

I searched the archives and didn't find anything conclusive, and only have only found this link regarding stock vanagon springs: http://www.brick-yard.co.uk/VehicleSpecific/T3/info/springs.htm but it obviously doesn't mentione anything about ride characteristics.

Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks, and it's good to be back on the list.

-Damon
