Subject:Leaning to the left- 87 Westy
From:Mark Mages

OK - here is another question for all of you

I just noticed (well, just got around to seriously questioning) a pretty
serious lean in my van.  When parked, the left side is lower than the
right.  I know the cabinet's weigh a good deal, but didn't VW allow for
the added weight with the Westfalia package in the suspension?

Do I need new shocks, or are the Westies a lil bit lopsided? (probably
2-3in lower on the left)  Knowing the P.O. like I do (from his
maintenance or lack thereof) the shocks haven't been replaced since it
was purchased.

Thanks in advance!

Mark
