I think they left it out because it's not an issue with new kit, it's been made to much closer tolerance. On mine the 3 screws make no change whatsoever.

The two suspension shaft holders have a tapered end. The correct way to install them is: install the taller one with taper side up and the shorter one taper side down. Its clearly shown in the manual but I overlooked it.
I did the same mistake :oops: :lol:

So I guess now will be a bad time to ask if you have a spare, single, rear wheel "drive washer" for the original Scorpion :oops: :oops: :oops:

I bought the alu wing stay from pargustore for scorpion 2014, but it doesn't fit. Is there a big difference from the original beetle / scorpion / tomahawk tranny against the 2014 version?

Screw holes are to far apart on the wing stay.

The mounting holes for the gearbox lid are the exact same - old to new.

So it should fit - perhaps the bends on the mount are out of angle for some reason?
