    Default Subaru Sambar with VW Kit - Suspension and or Body Kit Issues

    Hey Guys/Girls,

    I've had my 93' Subaru Sambar with VW conversion for about a year now and it's been treating me fairly well, but I've run into a few snags and I just have a few questions:

    1: I'm finding that the suspension isn't super. When it's just me in the front I can get away with it only bottoming out sometimes but when there's two people in the front my bumper is almost always about 2 inches from the ground. As you can imagine it bottoms out quite a bit and now due to that fact, the bumper has cracked in half and some of the fiberglass mounting tabs for the VW front have broken off. I'm not fiberglass specialist and it seems that i've been able to makeshift mounting that is fairly secure. Is there anything I can do about the suspension. When no one sits in it it is quite level.

    2: Is there anywhere that you can buy aftermarket or factory replacement interior parts such as, ceiling, steering wheel or dash kits/covers?

    3: Is there anywhere that you can buy just the VW body kit for these? Or bumpers?

    Thanks in advance!
    -John

    I don't think they do unfortunately. I just used Google Translate and then had to convert all the prices myself.

    For some reason google chrome says it has translated the sit but it has'nt maybe all the text has been saved as jpg's which means the text can not be translated. Other than that the site is Brill
