I've seen lots of folks running around in Syncros with a Berg SS kit. IIRC, they are configured the same as a 2wd 5-speeds.

I bought one from Gene Berg but when I installed it carefully, and I have installed one in a 4 speed before, I could not hit 4th or 5th gears. I tried moving the plate around with no luck. I did not try altering the linkage under the van. I called the folks a Berg and they admitted they didn't really know if it would work although they thought it should. I called Daryl at AA trans ax and he said he had never done one either. Before I send it back I thought I would pole the collective vanagon knowledge base. Anyone? > > Doug with '83 van with 1.6 turbo diesel burning bio. > Sent from my iPad |
