Thank you everyone for making us feel so welcome!
The atmosphere was fab and the weather is definitely not the main reason for such a successful event.
We had a brilliant time and can't wait to book the 2012 WRW !
In the mean time, If any of you fancy a visit to Montreal, give us a shout.

Vanagon concerns / Weekender 85 Front & Rear Suspension Coil Springs

« on: July 27, 2011, 11:08:44 AM »

I need to replace the worn out springs on our 1985 Weekender. I really want brand new parts but don't seem to find any supplier in the States or Canada. I checked in the UK and found this:

Does anyone have an opinion and/or advice? Any feedback on this company?
I'm NOT into lowering and stiffening business at all.....  The softer the better ! Even if it leans, dives and roll.....  I actually love that !

Thanks for your input

Thank you Rich.

I'll leave the facebook thing to my better half.... she's the Facebook addict, whilst I'm the 'anti' :-O

Hi !

My name is Franck, I'm enjoying my second season in our 85 Weekender and I'm seriously tempted to attend  to the Vermont event (Townshend) to meet some of of you! My wife Nathalie and my son Liam (3.5 yo) will be with me too.
Any other toddler coming at all?
If you happen to know the region well, Could someone advise us on a scenic route to take? We shall be setting of early morning (Friday) to enjoy the journey rather than rushing it!

Looking forward to meeting you
Franck
