My 82 Diesel does not handle as well as my 86. Is this common. I am going
to change out the shocks on the 82. Are there other things I need to look
at?

Sure. In no particular order, ALL of the following play a role in how your
Vanagon handles: Tire type, tread pattern, road surface, tire inflation
pressure, tie rod ends, ball joints, wheel alignment, thrust angle, rack &
pinion wear, spring resilience, loads you carry.

Check all of these.
