Too many people are suffering.
No people should suffer.

Let us hope tensions will end in definitive solutions.
Let us hope these conflicts bring these solutions fast.

As every week we bring better solutions for your Classic Volkswagen.
Welcome to the BBT News.

 

Brazilian Bay window buses have other steering components than European buses.
This week we add the center drag links for the Brazilian Bay window buses.

A center drag link is the tie rod that connects your steering box to the steering idler in center of your front axle.
Worn out drag links can cause nasty play on your steering system.

We introduce two models to choose from easy recognizable by length.

1338-150 Center draglink – 628mm long – Bus Brazil 76-82
1338-155 Center draglink – 600mm long – Bus Brazil 82-96

For T25/T3/Vanagon we introduce this week the gear linkage bushing.
Prevent yourself from mis-shifting and make that shifter works smooth again.

Up to April 1987 you need two, one for the front and one for the rear.

May 1987 on you need  only one for the front.

Check if you have one or two holes for the little mounting screws when not sure.
