Cheers, Ian.

You will have the early linkage if its an air cooled, some of the parts on your list are for the later style linkage. The important bush to replace is on the body hidden by the fuel tank, the fuel tank needs to be removed to replace that bush. The best thing to do is look at the 7zap.com site and click the vw symbol then type 2 and the year of your van and have a look at the early linkage diagram.
