WTB - NSW - IRS Pan - damaged OK
The Bigfella - December 16th, 2007 at 09:13 AM

I'm looking to get some bits off an IRS pan to tidy up one I already have. A damaged pan or one that has had the IRS bits removed would be ideal.

Thanks
Ian

what "bits" do you need ?


The Bigfella - December 16th, 2007 at 10:12 AM

I don't ask for much:

It has to be an IRS pan

It has to have provenance (ie VW numbers)

Rust free would be nice..... but not essential.

I even had cash in my pocket.

Just back from a wasted trip - fortunately only 25 minutes each way:

1 - it isn't IRS - but he reckons it is. I've got news for him.

2. - Seven faint punched in numbers in a groove (starting with a 2) just don't cut it.

3 - it's in beautiful nick - no rust, nicely painted.

It didn't come home with me - and no - it doesn't belong to anyone we know around here.

WHAT DO YOU NEED
IT WOULD MAKE THIS A LOT EASIER


The Bigfella - December 20th, 2007 at 08:47 PM

I need an IRS pan - any condition is OK, but it has to be legit (not like the thing I looked at today, stamped with the $10 flea market number kit)

..... and no - I haven't been through Taree since February.

You might be better asking for a 'trailing arm', 'Super Beetle style' or 'CV-joint' rear suspension, especially with less technically minded enthusiasts because technically they ARE all IRS 'Independent Rear Suspension'.

Got one - 1970 semi-auto. Thanks Volksbahn! Now comes the welding bit. Time to put in my Volvo seat mounts and swap over my suspension and, and ......

happy to help ... good luck

Ahh - it looks very different already. Its sitting up on a couple of stacks of old BBS rims (nothing cheap about my stands). One pan half is off and there's only a few spots still to drill on the other. Next step ....... clutch tube.
