I was hoping that someone might have the model or part number of the
Old Man Emu shock that can be used in the Syncro front.
Or a better alternative?
Regards to all and thanks in advance.

Gday Peter,
Van-Cafe lists OME shocks for Syncro on their site.
Check out http://www.van-cafe.com/vanagon_parts.jsp?ct=857043111&pa=pct&pct=829148816
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

It turns out that ARB who supply EMU shocks (part N38S front) sent
the last batch to USA. ARB dont even make them, they are an import
from who knows where. So I gave up on the EMU shocks.
I have purchsed KONI (part 82-2100 front) adjustables for $422. I
have been running KONI adjustables on the rear (part 82-2101 rear)
for the last 150000kms & they are very good. THey are also fully re-
buildable.

If the sale took place in Australia, I think that is the 16" now owned by Yurik Orkowski in Perth, West Australia.
Yurik, can you confirm please?

Hi Les,
I purchased my 16” Syncro in 1998 from a MAF pilot (Australian) stationed near Darwin .
My Syncro is a camper; Trakka conversion.
There was a 16 “ double cab Syncro here in WA owned by Hans Bouenkirk and this
one was eventually purchased by Mark Boys in 2004. This may be the one that
Mike is referring to.
Hope this clarifies things.

Yurik,I have asked Mike Plompen for more details because the buyer of the 16" he is referring to is Rudi Purkhart, who was listed on the very early newsletters that I sent out in the first half of 04, before I started the dedicated website. Rudi is in Austria at present and I am hoping that he might contact our group. I am keen to know if it is a 2.1 MV and whether he is bringing it to Australia. (Mike, you might suggest this to him.)Mike recently found a RHD 16" Doka in Europe but it proved not to have the 2.1 MV engine, so your Transporter and Mark's double cab are still the only two RHD 2.2 MV's that we know of. I am waiting for Mike to come back and tell us what engine is in the 16" that Rudi has bought.In any event, thanks for adding details to the history of the Australian Syncros.Les Harris----- Original Message -----From: Yurik OrlowskySent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 10:47 AMSubject: RE: [Syncro_T3_Australia] another right hand drive 16" for australia

That's interesting. Rudi's name appeared on the original list when I was sending out a newsletter to Australian Syncro owners in early '04 but his e-mail got bounced. Since I started the Syncro_T3_Australia website, his name hasn't reappeared.
The big question is: is this a 2.1 MV ?
In any event, we will be very interested to get any information on Rudi and his new acquisition.
