- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- Hi guys today we look at fixing the sloppy steering on a vw bus and also look at a basic wheel alignment process. Update, the bolt head tabs were bent into the right spots to stop the steering bolt from backing out :)
Great video and explanation of the steering mechanisms. Well done. Need to check my front end of my 64 deluxe✌🏼
glad i could help out mate :)
Better fix the tabs on the pinch bolt lock 7:26 or it's gonna back out over time. One tab needs to bend over the flat on the arm and the other on a flat on the bolt. Ot
herwise a great video on the steering system.
Haha yeh saw that just after the video 😉😎
@@DemopVWgarage - That's pretty much when I notice things too... :)
Greetings from Colorado USA !! Love the videos, its cool to see your progress !! Do you have any videos showing how to rebuild a steering box ?
Cheers Matt, there is one i show how to clean and Reassemble . Colorado is my dream place to go snowmobiling 😉😎
Love this bus and your vids. Greg from lockdown
hell sick!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Craig, love the vids you're putting up. You mention that your orange bus us airbaged. Any chance you can share the set up? I have a 62 thats been airbaged by previous owner but in correctly, the rear is a mess and would love to see the set up and what gear you've used. Cheers, I really enjoy your channel, keep on bussing
Hay Adam, no problem, its a ce engineering front and rear set up. I got the full kit from the uk. Only problem is the rear doesn't go low enough. I'll be doing a full video on the set up and a close look under the bus soon ;) Cheers Niko.
@demop garage. Hello. I have a ‘70 Bus & I have quite a bit of play. I noticed that the steering wheel moves quite a bit even before the steering coupler begins to move the steering box. If my steering wheel nut is loose, could that cause play? The steering wheel is loose & has a crack near the center where the horn is.
Thanks in advance.
Hay Paul the steering wheel has a spline so try tighten up the nut first and see what happens to the play. If the wheels cracked I would be replacing it pronto.
@@DemopVWgarage Ok 👌 I roll try tightening it up first. I remember a long time ago have the steering box rebuilt and the shop owner apologizing for cracking the steering wheel when they were trying to take it off. I do plan on replacing with a new replica. Thanks 🙏🏼
Mine has at last 5-5 inches before it catches it sucks!!
wow, that's heaps have you tried tightening up the nut?
@@DemopVWgarage pray tell what nut shall I tighten lol. Pretend I know nothing at all. It seems all the slop is in only the wheel .
