The Vans got a nice charger
You could do individual ones using a regulated power supply, but your not going to easily be able to keep an eye on the Ah overcharge, also theres a chance you could run into cooling probs towards the top end f the charge possibley.
I suspect if you ran around them with a volt meter and a dummy load you'll spot the dodgy batteries straight away.
Surprised to hear that a set of 2001 batteries have gone west, normally the post 2000 ones are much better, presumabley discharge abuse and lack of watering by another owner
