I owned an '84 Vanagon a few years back that I had to part with, and
missed it ever since.  Just bought an '85 Westy and am in the process of
fixing it up. It was well taken care of, so most "fixing" is pretty
cosmetic.   The po had new shocks put on just 2k ago, but the vehicle
still looks like its taking off.  The actual height of the body off of
the rear wheels looks as I remember it should, but the front looks like
there is too much clearance, hence the front is higher than the back.
Any suggestions on the cause of this, and corrective action I can take
to get it more leveled?  Thanks.
