16X9 PORSCHE FUCHS INTO A SPLIT WINDOW TYPE II

This is the easier way to narrow your bus rear end. All you need are late IRS beetle transmissions and axles. This is not a DIY job, but worth when you want to convert you Split bus from swing axle to IRS. Then you can have enough room for 16x9 porsche turbo fuchs wheels. 

Now, let's share what we've done in our gurage recently.

1.Spacer for IRS training arms, with extra length bolts.
