So what is the damage $$ for a peloquin on a vanagon?  

I know that these are not terribly expensive ~$150 for vw 020 type trannies. I guess I never thought what the van would need it for until all of this weather. Not even in Michigan where we lived and snows deep.

RE: Peloquin Differentials
I have the Peloquin in my '90 Westy automatic.  Also limited slip in my
daily driver, a '90 T-Bird LX.  Last winter, shortly after getting the
Peloquin in, we had a little snow here.  I deliberately went out and found
some side streets with several inches of undisturbed wet nasty snow.  And
was very pleased with the performance, couldn't get the Westy to actually
spin a wheel that I could feel.  Tried hard but I just kept going.  The
Nokian tires probably helped some also.  And on several occasions I have
been in mud or sand or loose dirt and realized that I had driven out of
something that in the past I might have had to deal with differently  So
far very satisfied with the Peloquin diff even though I have not given it
any severe tests.
