We finally have the majority of parts to start the IRS conversion on my split VW Bus. It's been a long wait, but the results will be worth it for sure. In the first video we tackle the installation of the main suspension components, and the stub axles too. lots to do so let's quit talking about it and get to doing it.

I did the type E motor sports IRS conversion on a 58 2 years ago. Artigas trans. Rides so smooth wheels sit straight up.

Really enjoyed the video and after seeing the Bus in person it’s fair to say the attention to detail in your work is second to none! Respect!

So Dubfab made the arms too? Side note, we should talk to 034 Motorsports or UroTuning. They both make their own rubber mounts for the watercooled work but use a stiffer solid rubber for their motor mounts and strut mounts. I bet they could easily make these kind of higher durometer engine mounts!

The shackles, trailing arms and springplates are DubFab.

Great video as usual GT. Learn something from every one!

I really dig your channel! No B.S., just solid work ethic & advice. I have a ‘62 Porsche 356, and was wondering if you also work on old Porsches?

@the_Wagen 6 месяцев назад

I do not. I’ve worked on a few when I turned wrenches at Beetle Barn. Very similar platforms.

Cool video. I’m curious if you could use the 3x3 boxed arms on a bus even if doing a IRS conversion on the early bus like you can on the type 1 bugs if doing a Baja style build.

@the_Wagen 3 месяца назад

I’m sure it’s possible with the right mods and fabrication.

Great video, very informative. What the model number for the Wilwood caliper you are using for the rear?

@the_Wagen 16 дней назад

That are the new EMPI direct replacement for their standard caliper. With e brake.

@the_Wagen 6 месяцев назад

We get to the 30-40’s F. The heater is mostly for camping.

Sorry for the dumb question. Which Bowden tube sleeve are you using. Im doing IRS conversion on a 65 bus. Great Channel by the way. Your Bus is Sick!!!!
