Old VW's you got to love them !
Took my spindles in to have new king and link pins fitted.
Have been told the Left Hand side link pin carrier casting thing is bent.
Fitted the new bushes but could not ream out for the new king pin.

Have been told they are handed and need an early type as my car is a 52 Zwitter - Great !!!!!
Any chance someone out there can help ?, or suggest where to try have tried KK, Status, FBi etc - all the normal suspects with no luck.

Feels like the car will never get back on the road. :cry:

Thanks anyway
Regards
Simon.

They are handed, but as far as I'm aware, they are the same for all k/l-pin cars... p/n 111 405 351 (L) and 111 405 352 (R) if my memory serves me correctly.

Thanks for the reply Rich,
Was given the part number 111 405 357 by Phil at Bears today.
He said there are 3 different types and I need the early one ?
So now am well confussed.
Can I just use any year one ?, if so do anyone have one available ??
