gaswelds .
Cheers moit.Will check out the dubrod at Valla!
Stoppa,
Just found the thread Great work. If you are interested i have a painter mate that is into vw's and would help you out. He is a very busy bloke but i could put in a good word for you. He calls himself Ace .... something but you would have to book in. Looking at the time it's taken so far it might be a bit of a push. I'll try and catch up Great Work. Did you get your suspension adjusted or do you still need ideas. I have a tool and a table to drop the rear to exact levels if it helps. Dropped spindles are also an option.
