evilc, i know all about your theories, and im a theory buster! i worked for GA motorsport in the '80s, top team, long arms and all, but this is about beetles, not fairy land FI and single seater b/s...
i do this for fun and build prolifically, i do what i like, and what i fancy, ive done all your fabricated long arms, i race to bend things, push and shove is where its at, thats not my fault, its the others, and i win races, you can work the rest out. i'm to modest, i dont want to be stood making special parts and a few dozen spares, in case you didn't think of it, short arms are good in a contact sport, and if you read my post properly you will see i had to squeeze in my 4x4 system, i adapted the A80 method after my 6mth fabbing wishbones etc came to a crunching expensive end. special parts? i done 'em, 1500 hrs worth of em, I've learnt to adapt ready built kit, you obviously havent bent your special parts yet, i suppose you mean volkdents
build as being too heavy, as the post says, mine is very light, or perhaps the A8 system with its short arms? that looks clumsy, whats the logic you cant see for it all then? could it be fun?
xellex, they go in a super easy, some i modify and bolt in, some i modify more and weld in, tilt them for anti dive if you want, not for me , too much on power lifting. get rid of all the heavy old super right back to the bulkhead. no pics, maybe later when the new ones looking good. have fun, i do...
