Mk I Golf Rack Question?
Smiley - August 25th, 2014 at 01:32 AM

I have a bit of a tech query for any Mk I Golf experts out there.

That rack I am fitting to the Baja is out of a Mk I Golf and I am wondering if there is meant to be anything else holding the rack ends onto the shaft. It's a fine thread and does up tight. Is this all that is done to fit them on or is there a narrow lock nut that goes on the end?

If anyone that has an early Golf knows can you let me know?

There is a narrow lock nut against each ball cup.

Can get you a pic if needed

A picture would be great, thanks! Anyone know where I can get a couple? Or does anyone have some they are willing to part with?
