Subject:      H&R springs for Vanagon
Comments: To: Vanagon@vanagon.com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I am looking at some H&R Sport springs for my Vanagon. I have located a set for at tirerack.com and autobahnint.com but would like to know if any of the list vendors carry H&R? Also has anyone put these on their Vanagon? If so do you like them, problems and what shock did you use with them?

For those who are not familiar witht he H&R springs they are a stiffer spring lowering the ride height 1.5", but since these will be going on a 87 Wolfsburg they will effectively lower it .3" due to the factory suspension which is 1.2" lower than standard. I don't expect the van to sit any lower, the current springs are old and sag. My main goal is to get a firmer ride, which these seem to offer.
