Ya looks like it might be the driver side carrier bearing. Passenger side looks good and there's no play in the pinion so I don't think it's the pinion bearing. To do list lol. I need to flush my radiator and get a new cap for my bottle. I leave coolant puddles.... Anyone doing anything fun today?

Anyone here familiar with dune buggies? Helping a coworker rebuild his and trying to find some gears for a Super Bus axle ??? Honestly never heard of it before. Currently running 4.37 and need 4.63 to put it back in the torque curve.
Took the chassis to powdercoat this morning and should have it back on Friday. Hopefully this will be ready before the scheduled Halloween test run.

Anytime after 5 since traffic sucks now after work.
Rob, the part didn't arrive today and 3 UPS trucks delivered already. Waiting on the tracking number from RC but it should be here tomorrow for sure.

There are two places in town you can look for Volkswagen parts the first is Nevada off road buggy over on Valley View just off of Desert Inn and the second is Myers Western imports down on Boulder Highway. He must be putting together a long swingarm package if he's using the super bus trans. The bus transmissions are super heavy duty because of the figure 2 liter engine that they came attach to.
