Our family 1966 classic VW Beetle 1300 was originally shipped to New Zealand as a CKD from Australia.We found it for sale on the internet and decided that it was perfect to recondition.This is the story of its rebuild.

Rear Axle Seal - cont'd
Problems. I put THE 66 over the pit to change the gear box oil and found oil leaking from the right rear brake drum. Bad workmanship had resulting in me botching the rear axle seal replacement. I pulled everything down again and reinstalled a new seal, rubber O rings x 2, and gaskets x 2. I thought I had done everything correctly first time around but clearly I had not. The installation has done the job and there are no more oil leaks.
