I have to replace the drivers side swing axle shaft in my stock 1961 6 Volt beetle. The transmission is still all stock. Does it take the short or long shaft? Thanks in advance.

CB performance website they have the measurements in inches. So does the Bugpack catalog.
Short axle short spline = 66 & earlier Bug = 26 11/16"
Short axle long spline = 67 Bug = 27 13/16"
Long axle long spline = 68 Bug & all type III = 28 7/16" |
And your welcome...
