This kit is intended to fully replace your rusty, crusty torsion bar bolts under your Eurovan. Once you've gone through the hard part* of getting the old bolts out your new GoWesty hardware will go in like a breeze. Two kits required per vehicle. One per side.
Fits: All 1993-2001 Eurovan vehicles
Kit includes:
*Why do I need this product? Over the years, the front end ride-height of your Eurovan has sagged. This is the nature of a torsion bar suspension design. Fortunately, raising the front ride height back to the original factory spec (or even slightly higher) is quite easy. Learn more by reading our article on the topic here. One aspect of the job that may not be easy is cleaning up the threads of the original adjustment bolts, and getting the nuts moving. There will be considerable road debris that will need to be scraped off the hex heads, then the threads will need to be soaked in penetrating oil to free them up from their rusted position. It will save you time and the possibility of cross-threading an old bolt to finish the procedure with all new parts.
Install notes: Anti-seize compound (not included) is required on threads and the nut seat for proper operation and longevity. Also, this kit does not include the retainer that locates the torsion bar bolt in the frame rail. In our experience, your original retainer can always be reused.
