I have one from my old '65 912

It's got a bit of a dent in it and would need some work, depends what you are after ?

I got a new one for mine when i had it painted but ended up about £1000 with fog light covers and trim.

It's part 1 the door flap and has snapped exactly where the arrow points to on your drawing,

The passenger side must have already been fixed as it is held together like you describe with a nut and bolt rather than a pin,

It that the cheap part to replace ?

The outer 3 bolts that hold the arm up onto the car by the sill, when these are lose you can pivot the arm around the inner bush/arm bolt ,thus getting toe in or out, the camber is done by putting shims in above this part,

Hope that makes sense ?

Undo all the drive shaft bolts and them the rear brake calliper and unclip the flexi and handbrake cable. Then undo the 3 bolts on the outer plate of the arm and th...

steering shaft spline size?

Good morning all Got myself a nice wheel for the 914 but the splines are to small on the hub. Any one got any idea what size splines are on the steering column ? A quick look on Sunday they seem about 24mm but didn't have a vernier handy. Its a '75 if they change from year to year. cheers Gary

Perhaps this is a roll on from the 912 value jumping up ? A few years ago in the VW sence when splits became cool. the price jumped up and everyone jumped on the band wagon importing splits and then bay's and even type 25's started going up in price, now look at T4's to. Good car are always gonna ge...
