Hi

I notice that your using 2 bolt struts on the brown car, do you prefer them over the 3 bolt? Is that because your fitting 944 stubs?

I find the 2 bolts have limitations with lowering and you cant fit a flip kit to the tie rods unless you reposition the inner tie rod mounting.

All my cars have 2 bolt set up we much prefer that to early 3 bolt, and yes all our cars feature 944 spindles/stubs.

Wow, I thought you were kidding with the brown and orange, that's the color huh? I was thinking it was some sort of base coat or primer! I'm going to have to wait till she's done though, it may grow on me and you have an eye for good color combos so I'll hold my breath.

Hi Steve, I've flipped tie rods and made the balljoint extender to lower control arms (it hit steering rack). Now I can lower the car about 1.5-2 inches more. I haven't tested it on the road yet but I think it will work well.

PS. typ4boy, sorry for hijacking your thread

typ4boy, your oval project is very interesting, I'm converting 1303 pan into standard beatle too. I've been doing this project for more than 2 years, it's almost done now
