I have  to replace the exhaust on my 87 Syncro.  Might piecemeal it, but
would  prefer to just do the whole thing, but they are expensive.

Don't have a  lot of Vanagon experience, so I don't know if the exhaust is
Syncro  specific.  Searching online, it looks like it is.

Can anyone  confirm that it is different from a 2wd exhaust, and what exactly
is  different?






Raymond, the 2WD and Syncro  exhaust systems are exactly the same except for
the following:

Syncro specific front header pipe unless you remove the skid plate or lower
it one inch then you can use the 2WD version.

Syncro specific muffler support brackets

Syncro specific rear header pipe heat shield
