SLOT MAGS...... Well chuffed with how these turned out Also loving the ability to “just roll under the bus” to fix stuff
Good old Schofields to the rescue again as I’ve nothing to copy to get the shape right, seems a shame to chop it up tho...hope their couriours are sill going ok as one seller on e bay ( tinware piece)recons they won’t pick up at moment!
Um ...no not really, although I think I did have to take steering column out including removing steering wheel to slide the outer sleeve off! Think also 13mm ratchet ring spanner helps! Think there’s a “how to”On removing column on the samba
Arrived today..cheers schofields.........thinking I might just copy the bit I need as I’ve loads of time On my hands now I’m on stand down! Unless anyone else needs just the lower half
You can do it from underneath without removing anything in cab, although I did remove the two screws that hold the cup at the bottom which gave more movement underneath to get 13mm spanner on bolt heads.
Think I did that on my old prototype bay just a juggling act to re fit washers/bolts etc, not sure if late bay different just it decided easier to remove whole lot as was all semi apart already! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The slotmags look great. I got a set for my bug years ago but they were 6" and zero offset and stuck out the wings by 2".
Here’s one I made earlier! Easy when you’ve something to copy .... might use the other one to modify the tinware, if I can’t find a real 2.0 piece.
if you need type 4 tinware, try Parts Emporium: https://www.partsemporium.co.uk/type 2 vw camper bay window parts used spares.htm
Think I might even have one removed from a type 4 engine I was modifying for my split.....prob right at the back of my lockup underneath everything......is hunting /travelling for bus spares considered essential
