I put some coilovers on the back to replace the terribly worn out shocks and springs that were already back there... gotta level the back before I can drive it home, had this car about 6 months now but just getting around to fixing it so I can take the van off the road. Also need to see how well it responds to my 'bad gas'. Van runs on it about 80%, mildly reduced power with 100% 'bad gas' in the tank. Jetta. has 200 odd HP iirc, so I think I can stand to lose a few.

I do have the same coilovers for the front, but may need to buy new upper mounts. Ill know more after.I get it here from my dads place.
