Hey JW ! that crank pulley bolt is a nice idea when your adjusting valves because having a socket on the bolt adds to much , and you have to take the apron off .
I love your videos I've watched so many of your videos for tec advice ❤ I've been building a rail same concept just not nearly as nice as your bug 😂 ❤ 💯 thanks 👍
Can tie a string onto the shift rod and get it through the backseat hole and guide it in pulling the string..helps a lot if you dont have the "inspection hole".
My end of the rod is getting stuck on a tube at the rear, is there a position where the rod has to go in? I know it has a curve I have a feeling because of the it might be digging inside the tunnel hence why it's going under the tube and getting stuck inside the rear end of tunnel. Any ideia?" Thanks!!
What did you do with your shifter bushing at the shifter hole. I have a 1954 and it doesn’t have one. Interested, if you have never pulled your shifter shaft out. Does yours shift well?
@@JWClassicVWThat's weird... You could have made this a 5 min video if you hadn't dropped the coupler so many times in the tunnel...lol... Have a good one my friend...
silver brazing would have worked as good. Less heat. MAP Gas 3700 degrees. Propane 3600 degrees. You won't have to generate that high a temperature with the silver solder and flux. Sometimes brazing is stronger when a weld. The weld won't break it is the material around the weld that fails. You can braze a piece of carbide to a piece of steel and machine steel with it such as a lathe.

He has some quality stuff.
Your welding has come a long way!
Yeah, the selection keeps on growing. Really well made too!
Outstanding! ❤

That would probably work well.
Cool concept......but I will just keep an extra stock coupling in the spare parts box for a rainy day. Cheers!!!
Thanks for the video 👍
No problem, glad you enjoyed it.
Nice!! Do you have a video of the Betg 5 speed install?
👏👏👏
😁😄
Nice job
Thanks man! Appreciate it!
Interesting idea...
Yes the pattern is so tight now... I love it.

There isn't a slot of guide that the rod must follow. It will go but definitely a fishing trip for sure.

@@C10Trace shifts great... I don't believe the early chassis had a bushing. There was no way the one I had would fit in there.
Good looking bug.. Did your shift rod have a bend in it.... Why?
Sure did... there supposed to, at least on the early chassis.

Never used that before, I'll look into for sure. Probably better for thin metals.

The music for this video couldn't be any more irritating😢
Lol... I love it!
