 Well they sure make them'cos I have them on my T3 .They are adjustable
 so the stiffness can be varied to suit individual preferences.
 Great shocks.The van sticks to the road like s%$* to a blanket
 (although the stiffer sway bar & 15x7" wheels might help too)
 They are rebuildable too so you have shocks for the life of the van
 if you wish.
 Got them on the Crew Cab too and handling/ride is excellent.

 I set them in the middle position and find it a nice compromise
 between stiffness & comfort.

 I *may* still have some literature for part no's if anyone needs
 that info...
