Hey Folks,
74 super
I'm putting together my steering linkage. Can someone put a picture up of the orientation of the steering arm off the steering box when the wheels are centered?
Trying to un-dick-ify someone elses "interesting" work!
Thanks! _________________ Turbo 2276 MS3X build http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=673125

This is what I ended up with with the steering wheel centered.

I think it would have to be to get the stops to work, and to get the track arm centered when the steering wheel is centered. The pitman arm on the other side orientates in a similar fashion since it's attached to the other end of the track control arm. _________________ scrapyards are for quitters
