Craig, Very cool. As far as I know the answer about the springs is yes - they are the same as the lower Carat type springs. With the power windows - start at the wiring in the conduit between the door and the body of the bus (you know where the wiring comes out of the door and into the van). The wires in there often break from the door openeing and closing. That may not be your problem but that's where I'd start because that's the easiest thing to check. Good luck - sounds like you're Fleet is coming along nicely :) What happens tot he '85?
