Spindles on MK4

[Bill G]

Just recently bought a Roadster and was installing the Spindles and they seemed to be marked incorrectly with PSS(should be passenger side) and DSS(driver side). Am i wrong or am i missing something? Thanks in advance. Bill

Hard to know what you mean without a picture, but I think if you make a "claw" with your hand, the spindles should go on with the "claw" facing out, not in towards the body.

I haven't got a photo handy to post, but I am sure others will post something.

Look in manual and I think it says to reverse the spindles opposite of what they are stamped. On the 33 Hot Rod they are stamped correctly/

I believe nut is correct, the MKIV spindles were originally for the 33 hot rod and the stamping on them was for the 33, and I believe on the MKIV they are swapped left and right.

They ARE marked opposite on the roadster.

Yes as the manual says they are to be installed opposite of what they are marked.

Thanks for the feedback. You were right. Having a blast putting this together. Bill

Front steering on the Roadster. Rear steering on the 33. They are marked for rear steering, so installed opposite of how marked for the Roadster.
