Thanks Ray! Yeah it's been a long while. Long gone are the days it seems where the list was alive with multiple postings every day. I think a bunch of us were abuzz with the new-found connectivity in the day and now I'm afraid we have lapsed back into the realm of taking things for granted as well as just keeping up with the day-to-day responsibilities of life.
I plan to post photos of our house project when we are actually living at the place. I hired a guy with a quadcopter to come and take photos of our VW line-up and it turned out pretty cool! I just want to make sure I'm actually living at the place before I divulge the location and all. As far as my original post about the 5 lug IRS set up - further research has revealed that these are basically VW Thing drums. They were IRS with the 5-lug, but of course the minute you say VW Thing, the price quadruples. As it is, I think I may consider a disc brake kit of some sort for the sole fact that it doesn't need occasional adjustment. This is one area where I may drift away from stock, just to minimize how much time I must spend doing maintenance. It's just that wide-5 disc brake kits aren't cheap and yeah, they aren't stock. When the time comes, I'll know which way I want to go. My wife is a very conservative driver and I really doubt that the bug will be driven hard enough to ever need an adjustment any way. I hope your friend can be convinced to share his wisdom with us. Thank You for your input. TTYL!
