I have one! I seem to recall a final drive change that came up awhile ago and caught me by surprise. If that's the one you're talking about, I thought it ended with your contention being verified. And the late case, with the molded-in side cover clearly exists; there are lots of them around. It's clearly a stronger design; it's just unfortunate that the ring gear, by necessity, puts all it's stress on the removable side, so we don't get much benefit from this change. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
