im looking at getting some M+Hs for jade.shes a 59 with short axles.could you give me some information on sizes please.thanks in advance ;D

I run 215/65/15's with my erco's I have had to use 5mm spacers to stop them rubbing on the spring plates, but you may be okay with Fuchs.

Im also running 215/65-15 on Gasburners. Works very well, but needs as 63ragtop points out a spacer to prevent it from hitting the spring plates. I ended up using a 1.5" spacer which puts the tires just right in my book :-)

I dunno One low 14 sec run and now you wanna go with slicks  ;) ;D
Well done Barry nice one for a first time out  8) Look forward to catching up width ya ,
You fancy Gary's picnic ? may have some wheels back myself for then  ::)

Just add some type three drums and you will have both clearance and better brakes.

yep glenn hooked mate.may well go to garys picnic.i think ron may well be going as well.its all down to funding though as per usual ::)

Did she turn out to be a 59 ?

Rob

I take it you wont be putting that longer legged gearbox in then  ::)

I dont know, a couple of 14'.00s and now you cant get enough :D








only jealous  ;)

rob i got a proper birth certificate from germany and yes she is a 59.50 years old this november.ron the only method is a berg 5 or earplugs :-\ its still a streetcar ;D

ear plugs are cheaper  :D


ps a berg 5 was listed on the samba this afternoon, looks like it now been sold for $4000. too late on that one  mate   ;D

If it was built in November of '59 then she's a '60 ;)

Ron you do have a turbo setup sat in your garage doing sweet fa. ;) ;D

I thought so :)

i know there a low 14 in there somewhere

turbo is for the ghia  8)

Ah thats the "chick" you picked up last week

Is that the chick he's planning on bringing to my party on Sunday night  ??? i know its fancy dress but thats stretching it a bit  ;D ;D

Brian P on here runs M + H on the back of his 67 bug I'm sure he would have short axels the same as yours

http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php/topic,4028.msg58369.html#msg58369

think he runs early sixes as well barry

He was featured in Ultra a few months ago may be worth looking out a copy

If you don get it I'm sure I've a copy knocking about. I'll have a look later

i think they are the same size as Trond Dahl

cheers jick ;)

Ron, that was for the front runners....
Try webster or robinson race cars, both can get m+h cheaper than dealing with m+h direct your self

As in Andy Robinson?

We're after a pair too  ;)

yes pugh andy robinson racecars ;D

Yes, as in Andy Robinson :)
He was slightly dearer than webster racing though in my case. Both very helpful though
