The dimensions 0.50 (Case and Crank) indicate that these are wear parts that require regular attention, especially in an engine with some miles on the clock. They fit in almost all air-cooled Type 1 engines, from early Beetles to T2s and Karmann Ghias. Combine these bearings with a new crankshaft or first check your clearance before replacing them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#f9f9f6;border-left:4px solid #2d6a35;border-radius:4px;padding:14px 18px;margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size:0.75em;font-weight:700;color:#2d6a35;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.06em;margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;margin:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:4px 0;font-size:0.88em;color:#333;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#2d6a35;margin-right:8px;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003eCase clearance (Case): 0.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:4px 0;font-size:0.88em;color:#333;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#2d6a35;margin-right:8px;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003eCrankshaft bearing clearance (Crank): 0.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:4px 0;font-size:0.88em;color:#333;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#2d6a35;margin-right:8px;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003eThrust (axial clearance): 20 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:4px 0;font-size:0.88em;color:#333;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#2d6a35;margin-right:8px;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003eSuitable for T1 Bus (04\/79–07\/82), T2, Beetle and Karmann Ghia with Type 1 engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#fff;border:1px solid #e0e0d8;border-radius:4px;padding:14px 18px;margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size:0.75em;font-weight:700;color:#555;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.06em;margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:0.88em;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0ea;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;color:#777;width:45%;\"\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;color:#1a1a1a;font-weight:500;\"\u003eVW T1 Bus, VW T2 Bus, VW Beetle, VW Karmann Ghia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0ea;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;color:#777;\"\u003eYear of manufacture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;color:#1a1a1a;font-weight:500;\"\u003eType1, Bus 04\/79-07\/82 CT, CZ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;color:#777;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/4678\/6124\/files\/Mahle_800x800.png?v=1776367101\" alt=\"Mahle\" title=\"Mahle\" style=\"height:24px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle;margin-right:8px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:0.8em;color:#777;vertical-align:middle;\"\u003eMahle\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BBT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57293592494412,"sku":"1609-050-20","price":44.46,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/4678\/6124\/files\/1609-050-20.jpg?v=1777571410","url":"https:\/\/vintagedub.com\/products\/bbt-1609-050-20","provider":"VintageDub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
