laughing I'm having difficulty getting hold of t3 mph Speedo so maybe a good alternative, .

what Speedo cable did you use? and how accurate is it?

cheers
Kris.

love it!

what are the gauges you've used?

ok so we're rolling again finally! changed the o/s lower front ball joint, done the tracking, changed the front shocks for some koni red shocks I had, fitted the empi rear disc brake conversion, these were an absolute balls up with poor quality parts and the brake lines were completely wrong so Saab...

my 69 bug went through an mot 3 times with red rear lenses, they wernt legal though. think you will find its down to the mot testers knowledge and then wether there lenient with you. my tester hadn't even seen a t3 before when I rocked up in the notch. he also had no idea wether the red lenses on th...

well im gonna start with holy shit! what a bad day set off first thing this morning as my bearings had come loose as I hadn't realised 66's have one year only bearings... doh! I thought Sod it set off to my mates to go do them, driving down a country lane, reached for fourth and a really loud grindi...

to roughly quote the box... fits all flat four he's except t2 I've fitted this shifter in my notch, it feels great with a really positive short throw, one issue though no matter what I do adjustment wise I can't find reverse! has any one else had similar issues with after market shifters? I would re...

I've already got a 1303s box with loads of internal goodies.. had a quick scout on the web and it appears twin side plate swing axle and IRS boxes can be interchangeable. the only thing that wasn't clear was wether you need to change the nose cone on the box or not to fit a t3? Im happy with the the...

keep the lines smooth with no kinks, have a play with the brake flairing tool on off cuts before you do it and just remember to put your fittings on before you flair both ends, I have... followed by a loud fu.. lol.z try and keep your cuts into the pipe clean and straight using a hacksaw, I always l...

it's swing axle so no cv joints, I suspect that it is the gear box causing it to jump out of gear, it doesn't fully jump out of gear, ie. starts grinding, but a small amount of pressure in the stick goes straight back into gear. I've got a full IRS set up from my bug but looking at my swing axle on ...

that looks awesome, so solid... I am very jealous

ok so a few minor teething problems, the brakes were, appalling and my mate who followed me home commented on the off side rear wheel heavily shaking on acceleration. so Sunday's jobs were rear wheel bearing and bleed the brakes, the brakes are some what better but. whike doing the rear wheel bearin...
