I’ve got a 57 bug that needs a paint job in and out.  Minimal metalwork required. No rust.  On the island would suit me best, as I’m in Victoria.

the only thing that changes is you need a hydraulic clutch pedal assembly, usually with a brake pedal and a slave cylinder that attaches to the trans and run a line between the both. more money than a cable.

the best is to stop by your favorite tire shop and ask the tire tech.

Wheel & Tire Forum / Tire Size

« Last post by wagonwx on January 06, 2023, 06:08:09 AM »

I run 195/60 on the front of my 74 super on a 15x5.5 rim, the front has been lowered with adjustable struts, the problem is the tires rub on the fenders a little more then I would like. will  135's fit on the rim? or is there a wider tire then that that will work while keeping close to the same height/profile as the 195/60? I like the way the bigger tire (195/60) fills the wheel well! suggestions anyone?

How do these install and how exactly do they work? Is the clutch/pressure plate still the same or does that need to be changed with the kit? I need to custom make a clutch cable for the new project, and thought this may be an option.
