Good god... You mean the parts I took off of the beam before I uninstalled it? :P Thanks Jim! -----Original Message----- From: Jim Adney [mailto:jadney@vwtype3.org] Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 3:10 PM To: type3@vwtype3.org Subject: RE: [T3] Painting Front Beam On 2 Jun 2005 at 13:48, Carrie wrote: > After a closer look at my front end and a look in my handy-dandy > Bentley T3 shop manual and found that no, I'm not missing any grease > fittings.

If this is the back of the upper beam, then there are 2 threaded holes there, M8 x 1.25. One anchors the steering damper and the other is for the steering damper on RHD cars and should have a plastic plug in it. Any of this sound right? -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
