Welding adjusters on a beam. Need input.
I am installing EMPI ballpoint adjusters on a stock 67 beam. I have the beam on the table with the lower pipe cut and the new adjuster is temporary installed with the leafs through it and the trailing arms are bolted on. I did this to ensure placement of the adjuster. The top pipe is still stock, I'...

Wiper linkage
I took my wiper linkage apart to sandblast and paint, now I can't figure out how all the little washers and pieces go back together. Can any one show me some close ups of a wiper linkage assembly that's put together properly so I can put mine back together? Please.

I figured the starter noise out. The starter is staying engaged for a second after the engine starts. This could be caused by the teeth on the fly wheel having little burrs on the edges keeping the starter on the flywheel too long. But if any one is having trouble matching a 12V flywheel to an early...

I'm sure it's an F case, but I'm not sure if it has been rebuilt. The crank for sure has a short step up to 54.69mm. I ended up machining a 200mm o-ring flywheel to 55mm just in front of the o ring. It slipped over the cranks step up perfectly. I set the end play to 3 thousandths of an inch and ever...

Delete post, duplicate. 6V crank 12V flywheel
I have a 66 beetle with original 1300. The previous owner converted it over to 12V. Last week when my clutch went out I found I still had a 180mm flywheel. I bought all new 200mm clutch kit and flywheel. The big question is....can I machine the new flywheel at the opening to 55mm so it will fit over...
