Following in the footsteps of AxlFoleys gearbox swap I have a query which someone might be able to help with...
I am in the process of swapping the gearbox for a 1303s one, but the clutch release bearing in the '03s box is different to the old bus one (see below - the 1303s release bearing is on the left, bus one on the right)
The beetle gearbox has a sleeve which the bearing fits over (see below) which isn't on the bus box...
...and I am wondering if this might foul the centre ring on my clutch spring plate when I fit it all back together...
...in which case will I need to change the spring plate??
Any advice gratefully received
