Vie Gehts.    

Gut geht's ! Danke !

Then one of the list members mentioned that he had heard there were 3 shocks 
listed for the front of Syncro Vanagon's in Germany.  I need someone to verify 
this for me as I do not speak German.

I would like to know Part Number,

Peter Seikel in Freigericht near Frankfurt/Main recommends the "N" absorbers.
He could give you a quote and also details about the technical data maybe 
manufacturerer.

Seikel used to develop racing and off-roading suspensions for all kinds of VW 
and Audi also the T3 syncros he is probably the most experienced person about 
these items. Give him a call or better a fax it is worth while. He also offers 
reinforced coil springs for the T3 syncro.
