Title: Rivage Cab - Front Suspension parts
Post by: Guy on 09 February 2011, 16:44
we need the following:

Front ARB Clamp x2

Front ARB Camber bolt kit x2

Crazy quiffs have them listed on this page http://www.golfmk1.co.uk/Items.php?cat=SLAREA&group=FRONTSUSPENSION (http://www.golfmk1.co.uk/Items.php?cat=SLAREA&group=FRONTSUSPENSION) but they seem a tad pricey at £24.50 for the Clamp set and £22.50 EACH for the Front Camber bolt kits... comes to £69.50 for not very much kit...

does anyone know a cheaper supplier?

TIA

Yes VW have a heritage set up that is making all the old parts.

ALL the old parts? even the front ARB clamps that CQ say are obsolete?

There ar no ARB parts listed on ECP for MK1.... try calling them though to be sure?

Wayne, do you mean THIS (http://www.vw-classicparts.de/) ?

Don't think they're reproducing that many parts, also they don't ship to anywhere outside of Germany.  :sad:

Yes and from a thread the other day you can order in the normal way but it takes a couple of days, believe it or not that was for a mk3 part.

they do ship to the uk for sure. your dealer can order parts from them direct too, just a case of if they can be bothered or know how.

if you look at ETKA it even tells you which parts are available from the classic parts centre, there's a little 'c' just in front of the part number and a 'classic parts' button when you go into the order form

I don't need anything at the moment but that's really good to know.  :smiley:
