want to upgrade my 72 Westy to self adjusting Vanagon brakes since my p side backing plate is bad and I've always hated the non-self adjusting versions on the bus.  Parts are more readily available (since I have to measure mine everytime being a 72) for the vanagon version too.

So...looking for a set of COMPLETE vanagon rear drums...essentially from the backing plate out to the nut for both sides of the car. Brakes that are in good shape...even better!

Let me know what you have.

He's been trying to sell them whole for a few months, the "Parts" post is new. I might head up next week to take a look...

going to try and give him a call tomorrow on the brakes...though, will ask about the vans. 
Looks like I have a deal on the engine from the MK1...so the westy will stay aircooled for now :)
Gotta get that deal taken care of...but still need the brakes!
