Hi all, I had the front suspension of my Fastback apart today to get one of the ball joints out and when I took the rotor off, I noticed it was missing the wheel bearing seal like there is on Beetles. Is this seal supposed to be installed on Type 3's? Also, two of the boots are cracked on the ball joints. Since boots aren't available anymore, do Type 3's share boots with any other VW, or other car? While I have the front end in pieces I was thinking of lowering the front end slightly to match the sagging back end. I want to go down about 1 inch or so. How hard is it to get everything lined up if I do decide to go ahead and lower it, and how many splines would achieve a 1 inch drop?
