 |
|
I have the jig for a while and I use it to strighten bug chassis.
If anyone know the info or maybe someone have manual for this jig would be great.
I only know the jig was from VW factory.
I brought the jig a year ago from VW dealer in Thailand.
Thanks in advance! |

(built by the shop that is using it)
it is not uncommon to build jigs for
resto work

That is a VW factory service jig # VW 1025. Used to repair frame heads or other damage where the parts must be precisely located in relation to one another.
Section R-5 of the the Bentley manual has a couple pages about it but thats it. |

Thanks for your info! Will take a look in the manual.
Is this the manual you talking about?

| Thats the right one. Mine covers 1961-1965 so the page number I gave may be different in yours. |
