I need IRS.....What now?
I have 69 Bug with a swing axle and recently,with the help of this forum,I have decided to attempt it.Can someone steer me in the right direction with
a link or advice on parts needed.Is there a coil-over shock that is used and is there and upper side bracket needed for top of strut.What about my
stock gearbox.I believe the stock Bugs with IRS have a gearbox with mounts on it.Should i change my gearbox(I plan on converting to a EJ25T or an
EJ20T...or what would be the best solution for a gearbox in the cheapest way possible)?Please send any links if possible and pics would be great.
Sorry for all the questions......Just trying to get it right.
Thank you for your help!

What now???
Do alot of research! alot!
Check out other builds! VWKD, Shoptalk forums (conversions section), threads like, stidub's build (thats ej20t...) joel's build, ian's build, jak
rizz'zzz build... the list is long.
After you decide the engine (and consider the power, the cost, and the amount of cutting of body work......) decide on gearboxes. check out the
subagear thread and website.
nearly every piece of info can be found... its just alot of time and effort, just in the research.
