Thanks for your constant support on the channel. It’s always recommended to replace them for new whenever you do maintenance on the CV; but when I can I always try to use the original, they are much better quality. But I can tell these axle boots once were replaced. They must have misplaced some of the bolts and replaced them by T bolts.

Clean and save those OEM bolts and spacers whenever possible. The new replacements suck big time! Maybe this is a good time to check the CV joints and boots. I bet you can get away with cleaning and regreasing the original ones and only changing the rubber boots. The problem with cutting the heads of the bolts is that now you need the whole length of them as added distance to be able to remove the CV joint; that was a nightmare.

What's the biggest drop you can do with this method? I have a 71 super.

Multi tool with a scraper blade works well for removing coatings. Heating with a heat gun will help also.

Great idea on removing the whole thing; that way you find hidden spots of rust and make sure it’s all solid when you’re done. Happy 2025 to you and yours!

Good job. 💯

Gracias por tu comentario, mas delante se ve y explico mas de cerca.

En esta parte no sería mejor que la cámara esté más cerca de lo que explica por qué no se ve ni oye bien

from what i've seen on other videos the seal should be recessed a bit not protruding a bit and blue loctite should be installed on gland nut not never seize. They could be wrong?

Could you put a torque wrench on those you're out of your mind what do you think they are stripped out

Did you put the sound deadening in the area where the battery goes and section next to it?

Just came to say thank you sir! The string trick worked like a charm

Refurbishing the OEM parts whenever possible is a good idea; they fit better, the quality is better plus you save in not having to buy replacements. If you can media blast them and repaint you should be golden.

🙏👍®️

Tell me about it.

Great deal! Now a nice thorough cleanup; change the gear oil and check the CV joints and boots. It might need new boots and new grease. Ask me how I know 😉. Happy Thanksgiving!

Great to see someone discussing the flapper valve. I’m unsure exactly what it does and if mine works properly

This is a parts bus. Just getting the things I plan to use and saving any mechanical parts someone else could have a need. My cousin has a 77 transporter and he may need some of them.

Very Bad Video you kann not take Video better you repare the Car

Wow; that Bus is quite crispy underneath! I guess you will clean and service the motor before you install it on the other bus. Cleaning everything, retorquing heads and adjusting valves would be good ideas. Also a good idea to take the engine tin off to make sure there’s no mice nests on the cylinders, etc.

How are the rear brake lights wired in a VW? Are the rear brake lights shared with the turn signal bulbs or are they dedicated bulbs?

Thank you for your videos. Question (back to when you did the rear drum brakes: Where can I get the tool you used to compress the springs and rotate the cup into position over the pin? Please share/advise. Thank you in advance.

Wow; that valance looks as rusty or worse than in the one you fixed. Looks like they all rust out in the same areas by design.

terminal 87 where the black cable is connected in the front. you don't show it

This is absolutely the best wiring video i have ever seen in youtube, very clear presentation and narration. Thanks!

Whats the spec of the brass T fitting

Is your van color Signal Orange? You could try Krylon pumpkin orange I believe is closer match Nice job!

I’m sorry my friend I hope things get better for you!

Not an easy decision I’m sure, but for you it sounds like the correct one. The end goal was to restore it and enjoy it, as long as someone else is doing that then our community continues, good luck with family, health and the other projects 👍🏼

generally speaking, the Chinese repops are actually pretty much plug and play anymore. Old bug guys just know how they like to set the idle

I love that color! Go for it!

Where did you get that? What’s the part number????

I was blown away with how good it looked.

Almost spot on match! They have a great line of products that are widely available, give great results and don’t break the bank.

Good job,

Great finish 💪🏼

Very helpful info!

Nicely done brother! You can get rattle can with factory color if needed! And use Spraymax 2K clear over it!

Wow; this work is fantastic. Primer finish also looks great! I believe you can get paint matched in rattle cans.

Dios les bendiga

On the voltage regulator which connection sends power back to the battery to recharge it Isn't that the B+ ?

Thank you for coming out to this show

How many turns did u do to have it just right jw

Did you consider putting the buttons on the headrest?

I would start with the corners…

Just read the writing on the windshield to see the front

Looks Good - What size tires are you running? Any recommendations on tire size or brand? New to beetles- Thanks

Whats the mm of your flywheel

Nice! I thought that you were installing a Type I on this one like it had but I believe the Type IV 2.0 is a superior powerplant.
