Title: Wanted - Gearbox Cradle and rear mounts
Post by: Dave DND on September 17, 2017, 12:22:42 PM
On behalf of a Bugger down here who is looking to change one out as found out that his towbar is welded to his existing one on his Beetle which he has just sold

Wanted:

Rear gearbox cradle - preferably with rubber mounts if poss (Not Solids) - Heavy duty one with strap would be awesome, but anything considered  ;-)up

They changed in 72 to a thinner bar and softer larger mountings. Guess you will need the earlier tin plate one. There is a post 72 one in the shed somewhere if there is not one closer for collection.

Will dig it out has a large hole either side for the bolts and the mountings bolt on top, later ones are a thin bar and the gearbox mounts are also secured by the big bolts.
