Thanks,

Hey! I saw him first!

Jay, the T3 is the same as a Bug, so anything needed in a Bug's conversion is needed for a T3. A T3 has the double spring plates like 69-70 Bugs do, so you may need to swap to the later single spring plates.

What cars/years/parts for the drive shafts and cv's?
 
I need to complete the tranny to wheel broken link in my to do list. I have a hook up with the local junk yard guy. So I can grab alot for little.
Can anyone give the answers? :D

901 question
 
Given that I am getting a 901 setup from tranny to stubs, can I just use the complete 901 setup and change the stubs to fit the type 1?
If not what so I need? What can I use?

genius, send 'em my way. i got all of the parts from a '87 944S. the axles are different enough that i can't see the spline count. probably could if i pull the circlip off which may happen tomorrow. anyway, i am thinking it will just be easier to stay 100mm on both ends. let me know what i owe you. should only be a one day ship.

will post about new track width and rotor differences later tonight. i have pics. :agree:

have been getting slightly off the subject of the T181 flanges, but it is coming full circle. i previously posted shots of the track difference with the early arms. thought i would update with the track with the late arms. this pic is late arms, 17x8.5ET48 rims with NO spacer. think i may eventually add a 1/4" spacer or so, but will wait until i see the car down and settled in first.

the full circle part is that i will porbably be going with T181 flanges now because of having issues finding the right axles to mix CV sizes. this will allow for 100MM CVs on both sides.
