You may have to prep, possibly sandblast, the metal surface and completely degrease both pieces. LocTite makes a nice line of CA glues, and they will provide data sheets. Gluing rubber to metal is usually not too hard. You'll want to use a glue that does not set up super fast, clamp it lightly (not so hard that you start to squish the rubber sideways,) and make sure everything's clean. The AT front mount is different from the MT front mount. The 67-73 part must be for an MT. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
