Honestly, I would have to look as I bought mine about a year ago. I bought the aftermarket ones from eBay, seems to me they were about $100/ea. Shipped direct from Singapore and I still had them in ... |

Mine has just over 120,000 and is just starting to drip some oil. You might want to check underneath, it's likely that it could just be dripping from the oil pan gasket. |

I replaced both lower control arms with aftermarket and would recommend doing the same. |

The 2000-01 vans have a different fan control system than 03 and later. 03+ have the control module, 00-01 have a series of relays. |
