I probably should have waited till beer buzz goes away to post this.
Ok I was looking at my pityful teener like I had just gotten to her too late. Then my other project screamed out to me.(all this screaming is why you shouldn't drink and tweek on projects) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) There Iam better now.....Back to the topic can a tailshifter be turned into a rear drive taildragger. If it can I want to stuff it in a street dune buggie. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) |

Or you can send me the tranny and pay for parts. I will convert it for you. I have the conversion pieces in a box in my garage. The question becomes....WHY??? just get a 911 tranny. It is already done. |

Go to GermanLook.com and look up the trans section. Guys mix and match 914 trannies to tail dragger configuration all the time.

the germanlook website is part of why I wanted to do it, gut not for my Superbeetle. more for the "manx" clone sitting in the back of the garage.
I would rather convert than buy a 911 because I have the 914 tranny sitting here already. It is also a tail shifter which I have come to learn may notbe the easiest thing to sell and finance the 911 tranny purchase. |

There's a couple 911/01 trannies in the Classifieds right now (wink, wink). 1 rebuilt and the other comes along for free...

If you bring it to me, I will convert it for the cost of the gasket kit, and I keep the leftovers from your tranny. I need a good tailcover. I have one with a broken ear. |
