Were all the type 4 ones the same? (1700, 1800 & 2000) If so, then that makes 6 different styles. Did they all have alum shafts? I've never seen a broken one, but I don't have nearly your experience. I would think that once they bent there would no longer be any stress on them, so it would be hard to break one after that point. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
