Subject:      Re: Which Aftermarket Springs?
Comments: To: Loren Busch <starwagen@GMAIL.COM>

Got a 90 Westy 2WD myself, that I would like to re-spring... But, I'm looking for springs that will (eventually) hold up an SVX ? Can I use Syncro's in the back? Also, I would like to raise the bus a couple of inches all around.... haven't found any thing like what I want. Syncro.org or Bus Depots heavy duty westy springs. JC...
