Had the foot pedal cover which spans the main longitudinal boxes on a '71
Westy, '72 Westy, and I believe on a '75 Kombi and '78 7 seater. ie on
almost all breadloafs? . Had also a belly pan, spanning long. boxes between
front and rear jackpost crossmembers (covered the gas heater) on '75 & '78.
Either of these should be easy installs, using large hex head sheet metal
screws (bolts!), just position and hold up with jacks/wood blocks and drill
the box tubes. Grease the screw/bolts before torquing them in and they won't
break so readily.
The front pans are great for snow bank surfing and real deep water
hydroplaning. It is un-nerving (sp?) to lift the front wheels of ground for
extended periods, ie. blasting flooded intersections at 30 mph, as there is
NO road feel and any slop in the front end becomes really apparent. tim s.Have something to add on this topic today? Revive this thread in the forum »
