Sorry to hear about that! I have time to wait but it is getting a little frustrating!

It's been a while since I needed to buy suspension parts for my C3 but Van Steel was my first choice for rebuilding half shafts and both trailing arm assemblies on my '80 L48. Dan learned from his dad Arty and they are committed to quality and service.

That doesn't sound encouraging. But unfortunately, I already have them. Hopefully they'll be OK for non race applications. I posted before buying them and the couple folks who had them were happy.

Just cancelled my order with VB&P and ordered a spring from VanSteel. They were very helpful and it should be here this week!
