I decided to have a set of these tools machined for my 65KG. I had an extra set made up as well. If there is any interest in buying that extra set, please let me know.

These are for installing the bushing and needle bearing on the beam for the upper and lower control arms. VW provides engineering drawings of many of their factory tools. So I had these made to the original drawing specs.
One tool for the upper and one for the lower - for the king pin axle. The upper one also works for the ball joint axle.

Take a look here and you can see these tools: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/tools1.php
As mentioned some of them have drawings. As I recall it is the higher numbered ones that have drawings.
