    Absolutely beautiful piece of artwork my 66 has been sitting for about five years and I wish I could afford to have one of these friends put on. I want to drive it again. It’s got really really old school technology and a hack job on lowering it maybe someday, love your channel very informative and through my progression of healing from pancreatic cancer. I love watching anything VW specially your channel kudos to you guys.

  • @willieshaw2522
    @willieshaw2522 Před 2 lety +1

    Neat video for what looks to be quality parts. As a small FYI - when you run the jamb nut on, screw the tie rod end in, and then put the anti seize on the male threads - the first couple threads on the tie rod end stay dry, along with the innermost threads in the sleeve and the jamb nut threads. If you put a little anti seize on the tie rod threads before running the jamb nut on, and in the sleeve on the female threads before threading the tie rod end in - it coats all the tie rod end threads, the innermost sleeve threads, and the jamb nut threads. While this may not be an issue on some builds, coming from a rust state, I've learned to try to lube and protect threaded parts as well as possible.

    Fantastic video. First of your videos I’ve watched and now subscribed! I have a standard 76 beetle front end with tyre hitting upper left torsion arm at right full lock (1 1/4 turns). Clearance in the left lock (1 1/2 turns) is ok. I was checking the arms on your video thinking the wrong arms are on mine but all looks ok. …any clues please? Coming to you from Australia.

    • @AirkewldVWs
      @AirkewldVWs  Před 2 lety

      Split the revolutions of your steering wheel in half. Then align the car with out moving the steering wheel so you have 1 3/8 on each side. Then remount the steering wheel so it is straight. Then you will have the same amount to turns left to right and right to left. If you still touch, then the offset of the wheels is too great for the vehicle and a space might be needed should you still want to run the same wheels.
