Welcome to our weekly NEWS.
More goodies for our beloved Volkswagens.
Our new bus door tooling is ready and in production!
No more "inserts"

We now make the 64-67 bus doors  with one-piece outer shell.
NO inserts around the door handles.

All of our splittie bus doors with one-piece outer shells now available HERE
T25/T3/Vanagon inside corners are now available .
These inside corners sitting down under in your engine compartment left and right.
1985 and later T25/T3/Vanagon have a plastic PVC emergency brake handle cover HERE.
Up to 1984 the E-Brake handle was completely different and covered by a specific rubber booth.

This booth is now available  from our shelves.
More T25/T3/Vanagon news.
Because of its position (left side under the cab floor) the window washer tank gets a hard life.

Especially in Syncro buses almost all need replacement.
We now bring you  brand new window washer tanks for T25/T3/Vanagon at a very affordable price.

T25/T3/Vanagon window washer nozzles HERE. 
Our small chrome air cleaners HERE are perfect for summer drivers.
For years we also have  the louvered version HERE.

Out of popular demand we now add  the black louvered air filter.
Will fit all Type 1 engines, not recomended for winter driving.

Stop the misery from leaking air tubes and flat spare tires.
Let us help you keep your windshield clean with our super easy electric conversion kit.

Put the little pump in your window washer line,
wire a ground wire and connect the positive to your fuse box interrupted with the supplied push button.

That is it, all you need is in the kit and make your VW life so much easier.
Our complete electric window washer kits HERE.
Building up our spring stocks, many containers expected to dock anytime soon.
This week we had a large bulk shipment with SWT panels.
Thank you for watching and stay tuned for more.
Every Friday....
BBT NEWS team wishes you a happy weekend.

Welcome to BBT NEWS
Our weekly update what's new @ BBT for you.

This week we talk Engine Main Bearings.
After 25 nice years of cooperation it was very hard to leave Sintermetal when they seized production.

To replace we found Mahle Metal-Leve in Brazil as perfect alternative.
As their European distributor for the air-cooled line Mahle Metal-Leve was very happy to help.

We started several productions for missing dimensions.
More sizes starting to arrive now on a regular base.

Once we replace the Sintermetal size with Mahle Metal-Leve we add the Mahle logo in our catalogs.
Mahle Metal-Leve are perfect plain aluminium engine bearings, 
perfect for stock or standard engines.

Steel backed main bearings will arrive soon too from Mahle Clevite out of Mexico.
They will replace our line of Silverline main bearings for High-Performance engines.
Mahle Metal-Leve was kind enough to bring back the main bearing for early WBX engines.
These main bearings for WBX engines up to 1986.

Standard on the case we stock three different crank sizes.
WBX Main bearings after 1986  HERE.
Nobody stocks more Main Bearing for air-cooled VW engines sizes as BBT
We add four new sizes.

Complete main bearing listing for Type 1 engines HERE
This list shows sizes and brands.
