Hi sir, I’m very sorry for my late response. To open the case I didn’t had any trouble. Make sure you listen all the bolts and don’t jam a screwdriver between the cases. Use a rubber mallet to open up the case. Make sure that the noise is off and after that it separates pretty easily. If you have more questions you always can send me a pm. You can find me as Filip Dael on fb. I hope I could help you with this.

Great idea in concept, but you are still having to muscle a engine UP off the floor at least 8”(sorry I don’t know the cm equivalent) to get it mounted on the rig. How is that easier? Maybe you are assuming engines are always going to be on carts? If you would have spread the front legs out further so the fixture would go to ground level, it would accomplish your goal of 0 lifting. I know you want to use the bell housing, but why not build a pipe within a pipe mount(like a traditional VW/Porsche bench mount engine stand) for it? That way you can do the rotation for engine assembly. It won’t be hydraulic, but if you make it strong enough and with either multiple pin holes or a set screw mechanism, you will be able to rotate it and stop it where you want. I appreciate your “dead reckoning” engineering style as imprecise and un-German as it is…it does work!😂 Best of luck with the back as I have been there in 2011. Glad you had the surgery as all waiting does is cause permanent nerve damage😢. Best of luck, and see if you can find a copy of the VW book that went out to dealers called “Workshop of local manufacture” or something like that. It has fantastic solutions for many tools the factory suggested for dealerships that they did not sell, but have measured drawings of. I think there is a PDF of it on TheSamba.com. <EDIT> Found it😊 www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/local_manufacture.php
@VWBEETLEOVAL1955 Жыл бұрын
Thank you for the advice for the engine lifter, but everything is set in my mind to make everything for easy working with engines. This whole setup is for engines to do little work on it. To open up engines and trow them back together, therefore is an other idea for that. A dual use that will be explained later. Yeah the surgery was needed badly and now time to heal.
