Hi Volks!! I've had a busy 3 weeks getting Velma closer to tip top shape by rebuilding the entire front suspension all powerflex bushings including new powerflex rear trailing arm bushings and moog balljoints and rod ends,cleaned and re greased front spindle bearings,installing a single belt set up from Scott at turbovans which required a new small hub water pump for the pulley changes,a bosch rebuilt alternator,new speedometer cable to show how slow I am actually going,a re seal kit for the tank, making an antenna off a type 2 van work due to no hole for original vanny antenna and the alignment was done today. She drives like a dream,no clunks anymore nor excessive steering slop!! Now I know she's ready for our next camping trip a 5 day outing to Lake Okaboji in 9 days,now just a couple more cosmetic things to finish!! Great relief!!! Velma 82diesel 1.6 na westy
