Actually we have replaced our lowered springs with a new offering. Boge has
raised the price on the lowered ones, and reduced the price of their
standard height replacements. (Previously they were too expensive for us to
consider carrying.)  I have decided to start carrying those instead. 

I don't have any personal experience with these, but Just Kampers in the UK
have been selling them and received positive customer feedback. They tell me
that they appoximately the same height as the stock springs on normal
passenger Vanagons and Westies (late model Wolfsburgs use lower springs) and
maintain roughly the stock ride. They do not fit Syncro's. I have them on
the way from Germany and should see them early in July.
