QUOTE 9 is one of two OE U joings I should have -yes, from 914 steering 10 Is wher Im unclear! These are (OE?) knurled rod ends that need to be welded in place of existing OE set pin ends on the (bent) R. (intermediate) shift rod ©? sort of - you could cut equevalent parts to these from a 914 steering shaft. These get welded to a short center section of the bent factory shift tube. I though the point ot the kit was to eliminate the spaghetti bender rod and replace with a straight rod connected by U joints? Not exactly. You still have to get around the engine (on a 4 cyl). Half of the bends are removed and the remaining tube has very little flex. So are the dimensions for this available? I looked at the installation instructons but didnt see a cut dimension for the "stub shafts" |
