Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

As far as the IRS wheel bearings go, when trying to remember their placement, it always helped me to say, "balls with balls"...aka, ball bearing goes closest to CV joint (w/balls).

OK what is the deal with the spacing when you add rear disc brakes into the mix. Is the thickness of the caliper bracket the same as the thickness of the drum backing plate? I don't have pics of the rotors but one of them is trashed the splines are really stretched, the other one is questionable. Does anyone have the specs on the splines?

This looks helpful. Any way you could post the same for Type 2 SA? I'm struggling with the trans swap for my 64 bus.

RGBs and large nut - the trans may not be original.

Thrown Hammer as a good thread I think it was called the ultimate gear reduction thread or something like that.
