Hi, firends!
Decided to deal finally with the reason of "a heavy steering wheel" on the car. I replaced, a steering box, spindels, ball joints and excenters.
The reason disappeared in excenters and the ball joints bought in Germany in very famous store for this car but as well as specified earlier new spare parts so-called NOS (New Old Stock) - have nothing in common with OEM quality.
The result of works an easy wheel and the minimum backlash, but will tinker it was necessary fairly, it was necessary even to pull out plates of the front torsion that it is correct to put them.
In addition I restored the OEM Bosch ignition coil, replaced front axle bearings for better analog well and there are a little more jobbing.

Organizers provided us two circles of driving through the route, was very great!

Hi there!
For 5 years after painting the car, the paint-and-varnish coating of the car was covered with chips and scratches on the varnish from sinks and hands/clothes of visitors to exhibitions and festivals of retro equipment.
Work on the tint and polishing of the body was performed by a well-known company, I will not mention it here, but the work was done very well!

Hi everyone!
At return from Tula a month ago at entrance to Moscow became the metal knock similar to knock of wheels of the train which has appeared behind at the left the car at speed from 20 to 60 km/h reaches and over 60 km/h stopped being is heard because of turnover of operation of the engine, noise from wheels and wind.
At the same time the wheel was not heated, and the mood sound on trip did not add. The reasons could be different, from "soldiers" of brake pads, offset of pads, the retaining ring of lever of handbrake and to the half shaft bearing as has come off from wheel, and the most terrible from gear box that could entail its removal and opening and couple of days of works.
As a result the first has decided to remove drum and to reach the braking system, everything has appeared regularly and on the places. Has removed pads and without pads having dressed drum has checked sound, nothing has exchanged, the knock goes from half shaft. It has so turned out that to which hands did not reach to eliminate leak of the sealing gland of rear nave the whole year it was already lucky that it is the same nave and one repair resolves two issues.
For removal of the bearing I had no strippers and "strong" tools in garage and in this regard has transferred works on next weekends and has gone to the companion to garage for the solution of these questions.
As a result, the VKT 306th bearing has not passed and two thousand kilometers of the beginnings will collapse, the separator has burst in two places, as caused such characteristic knock. It is possible that it overheated, there can be production defect.
The quality of products is worse and worse every year.
Has ordered new SKF bearings, has removed protective boots on both sides that the bearing was oiled hypoid transmission in half shaft.
Three sets of sealing rings have left on the procedure of disposal of oil leak at assembly of nave, to quality of products of the famous packers of spare parts for classical Volkswagen again.
The car is ready to travel on the Highway festival to Kaluga which will pass on August 17 and to which I invite you!
See you later!
