Subject:Re: Lowering '85 Westfalia

The cheapest way to lower your front without cuttiing is to replace the
taller '85 Springs with a pair from a 80-84.

I went just the opposite direction with my '82 Westfalia- I went to the '85
Westy springs to gain 2" ground clearance. My Westy was formerly a Diesel,
and my front end was low. I go on backroads a lot and wanted more clearance.

List,  Please . . . want to lower a couple of inches . . . could heat
springs, but would make ride harsh . . . could use steering knuckles from
later years, if I could find them . . . open to any and all suggestions . .
. sure you will come thru . . . thanks jack8trop Jack Reynolds Ormond Beach
