Fellow Vanagoner's.

My Brother-In-Law,

(at this point not even a sniveling lurker yet, new to URL's, e-mail, etc.
I'll get him on the list yet.)

wants to know who makes a good shock for the 2wd Vanagon.  His is a 1986 Westy.

Can anyone p-mail me with your experiences with:

*  Gabriel

*  Bilstein

*  KYB

*  Stock

*  any others??

TIA
