Does any one know what year the Rabbit reservoir is for the German Master Cylinder? Mine is a brand new FTE german master p/n 113 611 015 BD or BO and says FTE on the master.

Bill, Sorry, I have just been informed that I will be "allowed" to work on tomorrow, and it gets better, I will have to visit beautifull Bakersfield to do the work. I love advance notices. LOL Before I get flamed, nothing against Bakersfield, just not as much fun as being with buggy people...

Cairo, Nope, until about 30 min ago, no one knew that I had it. So dont tell! Shhh! LOL It has the metalic gray paint on it, but a Taco person painted it metalic purple, he thaought it was a Taco that was slightly different. That's how I got it. Bob

Jeremy, Looks great, keep moving towards having it hit the street and then the dirt! Where did the steering column brace come from thats under your dash? Did you make it or buy it? any closer pics of that brace? Thanks, Bob

So who has the Meyer's molds for Andy's Kubel, anyone know or asked Andy? Bob

Not trying to lft it for tire clearance. The top of the transaxle is way to close to the underside of the rear shelf of my Manx2 (near the clutch area of the transaxle) and I wanted more gap for protection and F/G safety. Its about 3/16" and thats with the trans strap installed. It's also a swi...

Does anyone know what happened to the molds, does Dave Deal still have them or did Andy score big time and get them when he purchased the car? Thanks, Bob

Moved from Members Tech Section: Looking for recommendations or not on Body Lift Kits and why. Who makes the better of the many that are out there? Better as in Stronger, best fitting, steel or aluminum, least hassle to install, 3" height (or ?) and which to avoid? Also needs to be adaptable to...
