There is an excellent post from Steve Hoge in the archives dated 1/5/96 pointing out that there was a running change during the 1989 model year of manufacture and that Syncro front outer boots differ depending on whether the vanagon was made before or after this date. This post is to ask if anyone knows why this would be so. This means that my 1990 vehicle cannot use the boots made for 1987 vehicles, for example. I have a spare boot kit, but now am afraid that I cannot use it because this spare outer front boot kit might be for the pre-89 vehicles. I notice that the fiche says that when buying the boot plus CV Joint there is no difference by year, however. _____________________________________________________ Derek Drew New York, NY & Washington DC ConsumerSearch drew@interport.net 212-580-6486 (W) 212-580-4459 (H) |
