1966-1979 VW Beetle Original Left Front Spindle Clamping Nut
What does this part do on a VW?
This original VW clamping nut fits to the left-hand front spindle and is used to correctly adjust and secure the front wheel bearing assembly. The pinch-bolt design allows the nut to be locked securely in position once the correct wheel bearing adjustment has been achieved.
This is an original VW component rather than a modern reproduction. Each part has been cleaned and put through a blacking process to improve corrosion resistance and help increase the longevity of the original component.
Original spindle clamping nuts can become damaged, heavily corroded or have worn threads after decades of use. A refurbished original component is an ideal choice for restorations and front suspension rebuilds where retaining genuine Volkswagen hardware is preferred.
