    I have been doing my own mechanic work on our 4 for 13 years. It has been a constant education in repair and diagnostics. I recently came across your videos and must tell you that your presentations and professionalism are tops. Most of us will be lucky to approximate your skills, patience, honesty and level of perfection given to each of your projects. I especially appreciate your step by step processes that feature the speed ups and still important pauses for explanations. Even though I have had similar problems, you don't skim over the critical aspects that I may have missed; so I learn. Thanks and I will catch up on your older videos too.

      I appreciate your kind words, and your support. 👊🏽 Trying to make videos DIY’ers can use to do projects.

    Type 1 vw cases need to be modified like vw did, with the vanagon engine cases to avoid oil leaks.

      Not familiar with the Vanagon mod? Elaborate.

      @@the_Wagen Compare a vanagon case to a type 1 case. Look for photos of the inside the case around the front/rear main seals. I can't post links. youtube will delete them.

    Can you do a video on how to degree a camshaft? There only one video available on TH-cam, but the camera work is blurring.

      I don’t build many engines. I’ve been talking to a local builder ( Dam Volks) to possibly do a motor build collaboration.

    Great Video! I'm in the middle of doing a IRS in a split bus myself. What shocks are you running ?

      @the_Wagen  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Fox ridetech. They were shocks I had for a while. I’d get a longer Bilstein if I were to redo it.

      I’ve always considered Buses a VW label. Vans are made by Ford ,Chevy ,and Dodge.
