In reference to Mark's message below about "cheap" (inexpensive) H&R   vanagon springs for $280:

A quick check at  www.tirerack.com  revealed they wanted only $265 for   the same.
Their Eibach springs (for cars) seem to be lower than any I've found   also, as are their tire prices.
I have had repeated satisfaction with their service.

My two cents,
Steve Walker

If you want springs

Hey all, I just got confirmation from the vendor I buy
99% of my Scirocco parts from.

He has access to H&R springs for vanagons.
They retail for $399 a set, BUT he offered me a deal
for 30% off.

Yes folks, $280

They lower the van 1 to 1.5 inches, and for best
results should be used with Bilstein shocks

I asked, and he confirmed that he would offer the price
to anyone on the v-gon list, BUT you have to let him
know you saw it on the Vanagon list, or give him my
name, or whatever...

His business is Virtual World Parts,

They aren't listed on his site, but e-mail him & he'll
hook you up.

I don't represent/work for them, but they have given me
EXCELLENT service on All my scirocco needs, and that's
a lot of needs
