The locking shell is welded to the steering shaft. The parts I have are from a 71 and they are the same as those in yours (IIRC, you have a 69, right?) The 65 steering shaft is a solid shaft; you really should use the later collapsible shaft, which was introduced in 68. The late shaft is a good upgrade for an early car, too. > BTW the page in the manual is V12-3. The picture is at the top of the > page. The "shells" don't have a number just the column tube sealing ring. What manual? I don't recognize this number system. If this is the official German Dealer Service Manual, I don't have one of those. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
