Well a little more measuring and reverse engineering. This time recreating the pillow blocks and how they will mount in the frame. Once again, ran into an unforeseen fitment issue that I hadn’t planned on. My drawings showed that the VW CV cups would have an interference with the buggy frame itself. Once I completed the drawing I double checked the fit, and sure enough, they will hit. It shouldn’t be that big of an issue though, I should be able to put a spacer under the pillow blocks and raise them up a little. Tomorrow, I will be taking the outer Joyner CV cups and the VW CV cups over to my dad’s house. Then I can do a practice fit up, since my lathe is probably too small to set it up accurately.
