  • VW Bus - Torsion / Trailing Arms Removal - This video I wanted to show you how I removed the upper and bottom torsion arms on front right hand side. I didn't show the left side because it's same way how to remove the right side.

    PLEASE READ:
    At first I made this video for myself and didn't
    plan to post since I am not an expert
    at working on the bus yet, but I decided to open
    this video to the public and share! Figured it would
    be helpful for others and me to get other input.
    If I did something wrong or have any tips, please
    comment below! I would love to hear from you!

    I love how you dont curse or swear at your bus in this video, very respectful, thank you for that.
    Great video.

    The very best part IMO is that you showed us which size tool to use which helps save time for the next person doing the same job. I love this.

    Thank you for posting this. I need to remove mine because the Ball Joints are fused to the Torsion Arms. 45 years of corrosion isn't much fun.

    Hi Mic, great that you have shown how to remove the trailing arms. I will do that at my bulli-Comeback project in January. It is a baywindow bus, but the technique seems to be nearly the same.
    Best regards from Germany, Ralph

    Really like the way you make your vw videos. Best of luck with the van! I'm hooked and want to see how it turns out. Makes me think I could do this.

  • @DougAskin
    @DougAskin Před 7 lety +1

    Good idea to film it so you can see how it goes back together.

    Good luck with the build, Mic! I know sometimes taking apart the old stuff can get rough.

    Like your video, just what i needed now when I have to replace the Arm :-)

  • @weirdbikes
    @weirdbikes Před 7 lety

    Hi, Credit to you learning how to repair your VW, my tip is for loosening the allen drive grub screws, how the second one started to round. The 19mm nut is a lock nut and should have been loosened first. By the looks of it the grub screw clamps the arm to the spring pack so you"ll need to tighten that (probably to a specific torque) then holding it still tighten the lock nut. I hope this helps.

    How do you put the upper arms back?

  • @kavenmendes
    @kavenmendes Před 7 lety

    They will slide back in, but I'm positive that you need a certain tool to re-tension the spring plates inside the torsion beam

    • @MicBergsma
      @MicBergsma  Před 6 lety

      Thanks Kaven, good to know. I ordered new ones so it will look nicer and easier :)
