Re: Tim's Green Bug...
Never mind. Driveway is a mess again...
I had planned to out on the town but my wife wanted a nap. One thing led to another and next thing you know we are going for ice cream in my new and improved bug.
I almost forgot to bypass my heater hoses, but a quick trip down under and it is good. Just letting it cool to too off the radiator.
Feels very solid now. Less clunks. Little more road noise. I had to raise the driver's seat 1" and I'm not used to it yet.

Thanks for cheering me on.
I hope it lasts because it feels awesome! Need bigger front tires now.

Of course, I do have stock length arms and combo spindles if needed, hmm.
