🔧REAR TRANS MOUNT REPLACE🔧 – Super Volksrod – VW Super Beetle – 11

Today we’re back with Rob’s 1972 Super Volksrod. You may remember that in a video earlier this week we were repairing some crash damage in the rear left suspension area. We discovered the rear engine/trans mounts were broken from the crash. This may have been a good thing as the engine was allowed to give way, instead of being hopelessly crushed from the impact. So we pulled the VW engine and replaced the VW rear trans mounts/VW rear engine mounts to make this car whole again.

Also in the process we discovered problems with the VW Beetle shift coupler…. not only was that deteriorated apart, but it was also unscrewed and coming loose.

It seems that everything on this VW Beetle has been a headache from the previous owner, they just didn’t do anything right here!

Joe Rangel says:

Glenn
Good morning
There is a major hurricane heading into Florida Pan Handle next weekend
Do You have an evacuation plan?

VWJAWBREAKER says:

Hardest part of the mounts is removing the engine which is a simple task. Gotta love VW’s.

Tim's Workshop TJY says:

Hurricane looks like its heading your direction or a bit east but it's not even in the gulf yet so who knows? you may want to load up the car and head out away from it for a few days

PinkLady Bikermamma says:

25 MINUTES IS GOOD. OR WHATEVER SECTION OF THE JOB PROJECT YOUR DOING IS ALSO GOOD. YOU ARE VERY GOOD AT EXPLAINING THE "MECHANICS" OF IT. I'M LEARNING A LOT.

Phil Grindle says:

Driving stick shift with only your right hand is tricky. Years ago, I had a "Close Encounter of the Worst kind" with a freshly machined flywheel. Fell on top of my left hand, severing the extensor tendon for the middle finger. Right on top of the knuckle. Carbon fiber suture reattachment, hand in a splint and wrap for a couple months +, took almost a year to get 99% use of it. Driving my V8 Monza to work and night school all that time was a "challenge". Did I mention it hurt like hell for a LONG time? ☹
