http://cgi.ebay.com.au/vw-stabiliser-bar_W0QQitemZ220567783525QQcmdZViewItemQ...

that seems like a serious bend that isnt supposed to be there...
wonder what happened to it to end up like that :crazy:

Its would be easy to freight, it's so bent that it will fit into an express post bag.


vw54 - March 9th, 2010 at 04:53 AM

do think that would sell


LUFTMEISTER - March 9th, 2010 at 04:46 PM

cam070 - March 9th, 2010 at 04:49 PM

I think its one of those rubber sway bars. Not recommended for high speed cornering!


colonel mustard - March 9th, 2010 at 05:29 PM

ryana89 - March 9th, 2010 at 08:51 PM

Probably one of those people who sell left handed screw drivers.

snap.


VW-VARIANT-L - March 10th, 2010 at 02:12 PM

the rear sway bars which I could find have a central bend to clear the transmission/ forks, unlike the front bars.
Couldn't find one like this in theSamba gallery, so I called the seller. He states he took it off an early beetle, ? 1956 or early 60's with swing axle rear, also used it on a Purvis before he converted it to IRS rear end. He didn't know the manufacturer, and as I haven't seen this type before I don't know whether this is excessively bent or not but he said this was as removed.


Joel - March 10th, 2010 at 04:36 PM

thats just the sway bar for the models fitted with invisible torsion bar tubes and tranny nose cone :lol:

varient, the bend to go under the forks is nothing like the one in ebay, theyre small uniform bends, not something that looks like a freight train ran over it


hellbugged - March 10th, 2010 at 04:43 PM

its a rear one for swing axle and certainly its stuffed!


wilderness - March 10th, 2010 at 04:45 PM

Didn't see the ad, but my guess is there's an extra 0 on the end that shouldn't have been there...


STIDUB - March 23rd, 2010 at 12:52 PM
