This is a fantastic video with a fantastic production value! Thank you for taking the time. You've helped me a great deal. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your videos. I’m a life long Corvair person recently acquired a 64 Ghia with a Corvair motor transplant . I’m learning a new language ( VW) & your videos R a great help!

Brilliant video, so much good information here! Many thanks! 🇬🇧

Brilliant!

EMPI sells a kit of side cover stiffeners that works wonders in making those oil tight. It includes longer studs to install on the side covers to cover the additional thickness of the stiffeners. Well worth it. Always a great idea to (as much as possible) get rid of any dimples around the holes on the side covers and resist the temptation to over torque those fasteners (they go at 14 ft/lbs torque). I’ve heard that the red gaskets are double the thickness of the tan gaskets. You can use both thicknesses to find the sweet spot in terms of axle tube free play.

How did you get all your parts so dang clean?

Thanks for the info.

this doing it off the car & upright is THE way to go! but ive a problem: my seal carrier has no 'wall' to tap the new seal up against, how do i know how far to install it? ive done this in the past & must have just been lucky, cuz i have a BIG leak right now, any ideas anyone? (66 beetle )

adding the 4th gasket would create MORE space, not less, thus the play

Agree

If your sliding the end housing back on the axle tube, do you have to slide it on a certain position?

When is the next video coming out? I am hoping to see final assembly. Are you putting any gasket sealant between the paper spacers and the plate?

No, don't risk that silicone crap getting into the gears. Make the sealing surfaces super clean and flat. Only use a smear of rubber sealant as used in pucture repairs around the end of the axle tubes when you put the rubber boots on.

@vw nerd where did you buy this gasket kit ? You have a part number thanks

Can anyone here help me out here I recently baught a dunebiggy with a seing axle tranny that was bad I changed the tranny with a used one but this one is leaking in between the tube and flange that holds the tube on its leaking into the rubber boot any fixes or is this internal leak?

If you are compensating for wear, you remove shims, not add!
