You are right about the delays.  We had to test all of
the different vanagon springs to decide on best specs,
plus they then lost the models we were using and we had
to get more.  Then I had the syncro springs.  The 2WD
prototypes WILL be done in 1 week, and some people WILL
have them then!  The production springs WILL be
available in 6-8 weeks = mid-june-july.  They have
added a new shift at the manufacturer cutting the lead
time in half almost.

You can reserve a set now at:
