westfalia luggage pan fitting measurments

Post by hulky »

Hello please help

I am swapping my front fang section for the luggage pan and need the measurments for drilling the roof for the 2 front brackets.
Has anyone done this or know these measurments ???

Also does anyone have the 4 brackets lying round ?????????????????

cheers john

The brackets are available new from a couple of places, vwbusshop.de has them. Think I may have a couple of new ones somewhere, I'll look today.

I have two westy steel roofs here and the holes are in slightly different places. Whenever I've fitted a new roof section I fit the brackets to the luggage section and then grind a point onto some m6 bolts, screw them into the brackets, get the roof in the right place and give it a gentle tap. This should give you some centre punch marks in your steel to drill through.

Is your old fang for sale?

Have a look at this link-at least it tells you correct hole size:-

I guess all Roof sections were individually fitted ? :shock: once in the 'ballpark area.
