Having looked at one of my parts downstairs, and at the parts microfilm, it's now clear that the design changed starting in '68. The clamshell clamp with the single bolt and Belleville washers just wasn't used before then. I would say that the later design is the better one, but I don't know if you could retrofit it to earlier years or not. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
