Rear side panels are one of the weak spots on a late Bay window, especially at the wheel arch.
We’re tooling up to make a new rear side panel in our Silver Weld Through program.
We shipped two NOS panels to the factory and they scanned and digitalized them already.

This pushrod is the connection between your brake pedal and master brake cylinder.
More important as you would imagine at first sight as this push rod adjust the play between pedal and master cylinder.
This play is extreme important for proper function.
The official Volkswagen workshop manual learn us when the brakes are not in use the clearance should be 0.04 inch or 1 mm between push rod en and bottom of recess in the piston.
This to ensure that the compensating port in the master cylinder is not covered by the primary cup inside your master cylinder.
Incorrect adjustment can freeze your brakes, you better take care.

Finding good cores to make counterweighted cranks gets more and more difficult, so we add an extra oversize to our range.
BBT counterweight cranks start from original cranks, checked and welded with extra counterweights and finally professionally grinded and polished.
Adding counterweights let run your engine in a way better balance and gives a smoother rotation.
We build countless engines with these cranks and for mild and medium tuned engines this is still our favorite choice.
The complete range of our counterweighted cranks you can find HERE
