Description
Gear Set, .82 4th, Keyed Style, 1950-1979 Bug, Super Beetle, Ghia, Bus, Type 3, and Thing. Sold as Set
This 4th gear was originally produced for the 1961-1967 Bus with gear reduction boxes. With the .82 ratio, it produces an 18% overdrive. Due to this overdrive, this is the 4th gear that transmission builders chose to install to make freeway flier transmissions! There are two styles of 4th gear, splined or keyed. The one you need to use will be determined by the pinion gear that is in your transmission. This part number is a keyed style. So Cal Imports also sells the splined style, see part# 211311082.
Note: Due to the interchangeability of transmissions in a VW, we show this 4th gear set fit more years than the factory replacement parts. It is the purchaser’s sole responsibility to know what they are buying. If you have any questions, please call and talk to one of our knowledgeable sales staff before you buy. So Cal Imports will not be responsible for wrong-ordered parts return shipping.
