What about the drum, front face. There should be a hole there to adjust them.

No word yet i'll call again tomorrow. You adjust them as you would any 5 hole drum, same as a 4 lug just from the drum side. (did that make sence?) Anyway, you'll be happy to know i just bought a Baja and some thing spindles.  :D

Nice :rockon: Going fast is fun but lining your baja bug up for a big jump is a blast.Where did you locate the spindles? Hey Geoff is the external fuel pump on a CIS fuel inj scirrocco the same as on the CIS beetle?

cheers Shawn

Yeah the Baja should be a blast! I have had the spindles for a few years just waiting for a Baja. Just added pics to the cust gallery.

The fuel pumps are different, the Rabbit pump is a 0-580-254-957
