Hello all
I have a 72 gearbox (was working when removed)
full set of fibre glass wide fenders/wings
I am on the sunny coast 4559
Looking to swap for something? So what do you have? I am starting a 66 beetle project and need them gone as the minister for war and finance is on to me
Pm if interested
Thanks all
Clyve

Is it Swing axle or IRS?
72 can be either

By the axles, irs will have a flange that CV joint bolts too, swing axle will have axle tubes attached with big rubber boots joining it to the gearbox

if it came out if a Beetle it will be swingaxle, if it was a Superbug it will be IRS.
