So I got my RS Rep Rod today from Mark and Darin and ran into some issues. First does anyone have a scan of the Weltmeister instructions? Second it looks like I have the wrong size bolts and I had to open the fork a little because it was bent together too much. Looks like the real fun is just beginning Here is a scan of the instructions I received. Hopefully I got the correct shift kit
In Ref.# 6 it says four 1 5/8" length bolts but I have two 2" and two 2 1/2" bolts.

 

Cactus,

I'll be home around 10pm and can scan the instructions then. PM me your email address.

 

Thanks Matt....I am done for today. ryanlefever@comcast.net

 

Uh, am I retarded (don't answer that), or did you just post a scan of the Weltmeister instructions...?

 

Too much Xenit huffing for boyCactuswonder.

 

I did but I just want to make sure they match what anyone else has. Notice the wrong bolt lengths in the instructions. BTW I edited my post a couple of minutes after the initial post and added the scan.

 

How's that violet-colored 1:18 993 doing?........

It suffered a right upper shock mount failure during shipping but a little crazy glue should probably remedy the problem.

I found a dead body and some dirt in the trunk, otherwise quite pretty looking.

 

Hmm. I'm sorry to hear that, as I took pains to package it securely.

As for the dirt, the car is violet, not blue.......




Andreas

 

The body of the instructions references both 2 1/8 and 1 5/8" bolts. I bet the parts list is just wrong. I would try assembling the part off the car where the bolts will be used and make sure that they are just long enough for a couple of threads to protrude past the nylock nut.
Sounds like fun. I am jealous. I'm still collecting parts for my rs shift rod...

Argh, that hurt .

 

Cactii,

Late night at the oriface last night....

Looked at my Weltmeister instructions this morning, exactly the same as what you posted.

 

Looks like the marketing folks at Weltmeister worked overtime to cut & paste an image from the ROW PET....

Partying till 3 AM + coming down with a bad cold/sore throat = project on hold. Can't bring myself to crawl under the car today.

 

^ Fail.
