Hello  everyone,

We are fixing to move from Gulfport, MS, to Springfield, MO  the end of
August.

Here is my question: What all should I check,  replace on my '87 Vanagon? I
have replaced so many things since I bought it  and as far as I know,
everything
is in great shape. However, the Van has  never (since I bought it) been on a
road trip and it's about 720 miles to  Springfield from where I am now.

I can't think of anything I need to do  but, that's why I am asking the list
as their are members lots more versed  in the workings of the Vanagon then I
am.

Chris, see my _VW Bus & Westfalia Vehicle  Inspection Check List_
(http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/inspect.htm)     This is the list we used on the _Buses in
Zamora_ (http://poolio.net/zamorablog/)  trip last winter and  the one we're
using for the _Buses in Bacalar_
(http://ca.groups.yahoo.com/group/busesinbacalar/)   trip this winter.

Cheers,
