Tow bar build and hardware

[Johvans]

Does anyone have the information regarding the hardware being used on the front suspension for those that plan on using a tow bar? I thought it was on the forum but can't find it with a search.

Getting the front suspension together and I'd like to do it once and prep for the tow bar.

John,
Take a look at BARAIR's build June 13. Using a simple VW beetle tow bar.

Dan Perry has a custom one that Lonny bent up for him. It's in his build thread. I believe BAR-AIR is using an off-the-shelf VW tow bar. I think it is in his build thread too.

I was more referring to the heim joints used to attach it to the front suspension.

I bought 2 sets (manufacturers), one was junk. The source of the good one - some surplus place - does not have anymore.
