[westy68]

hello peps

i was wondering if anyone can tell me if theres a size difference between width that is between a k&l front beam hub to hub and a ball joint set up hub to hub?

and if anyone has a k&l set up for sale please let me know.. cheers Dan

Also bear in mind that the spacing for fixing the beams changed around August 69 so if you have a late bus you need either a new brazilian beam (via VW or Danbury) or am aftermarket beam. If your bus is pre 08/69 then a splitty beam will fit.

As for spindles, if you have 112pcd late bay rims then you can get run the current VW brazil spindles to keep your exisitng latebay discs.

Depends what you have -if late then I have the parts for this conversion (new)

I think there is about 24mm difference.
