Hi guys,

In need of a pair of good condition long axles from a '67 bug as I want to push my rear track out 1inch per side without using spacers.

Any one have a pair of know of a set?

you can use type3 or 1500 beetle axles
you WILL need to run type 3 drums if maintaining wide 5(these are becoming difficult to find)

Thanks Mark! I didn't realise you had to use a Type 3 drum with those axles, so that adds another spin on it.

66BRM, thanks for the link!

just make sure you don't use any new repro drums...!

they ARE shit...!

how much wider than a stock is the type3 drum to a bettles?

Ok, after some research it seems a set of these with '68+ Beetle long axles should allow me to fit my standard rear drums.

Now just have to find out what sort of offset that will give me in the rear!
