Hi Anna
I have been having great trouble getting hold of front suspension
parts. Vanagons are almost unknown here in New Zealand, so I have
been trying Germany, USA and South Africa. Then by fluke TWO turned
up in NZ, but I am far from sure that these will pan-out. In case
they don't, I'd like to know if you would be prepared to sell me the
parts and ship them, preferably in a wooden or very solid cardboard
box, to a container company in LA. There would be no customs forns
etc for you to sign, nothing... just send them off.
What I need:
front knuckles (stubaxles) bare (no hubs, bearings or calipers)
cast lower suspension arms
steering rods
swaybar endlinks
licenseplate lights (if they still clip into place properly)
sunvisor clips
What would you want for these (plus shipping to LA, of course)?
Regards
Andrew Grebneff
