The EMPI/Febi Link Pin Repair Kit is the complete front-end refresh package for early Porsche 356, VW Beetle, and Karmann Ghia link-pin chassis. If your 356 wanders, clunks over bumps, or has uneven tire wear, the link pins and bushings are almost certainly worn — and replacing them transforms how the car drives. This kit includes everything for all four front pins.

  • 1956-1965 VW Karmann Ghia — link-pin front end only
  • NOT for 1966+ ball-joint chassis

Symptoms You Need This Kit

  • Steering wander, looseness at center, or vague feel
  • Clunk or knock over bumps from the front end
  • Uneven inner/outer tire wear despite proper alignment

Restoration tip: Doing the link pins is a great time to also refresh the king pins (EMPI 22-3015-0). Front beam should be properly aligned and torqued to spec after install. A factory service manual is highly recommended for any 356 owner doing this work.

Decent Look, But Sizing and Shrinkage Are Dealbreakers
Size: Medium, Color: White
Product: U.S. Polo Assn. Men’s Classic Polo Shirt Used for: 5 and a half months Key Features: – Clean, classic polo style with a decent fit (visually) – Breathable and lightweight for casual wear – Appears durable and holds up in the wash Ratings: Quality: The shirt feels alright and seems to hold up after regular washing. That said, it shrinks noticeably, and the sizing already feels off to begin with. Rating: 4/5 Performance: It’s wearable, but nothing exceptional. The fabric is fine for casual use, but the sizing was a big issue—I usually wear a medium, and this felt like an extra small. I even passed it on to someone smaller than me and they found it tight too. Rating: 3/5 Value: It’s reasonably priced, but there are definitely more comfortable and better-fitting polo shirts out there in the same price range. Rating: 3/5 Pros: – Easy to wash and care for – Seems durable over time Cons: – Shrinks badly in the wash – Sizing runs very small and feels inconsistent Summary: The U.S. Polo Assn. Classic Polo Shirt might work if you size up significantly and don’t mind a snug fit. It looks decent and holds up to washing, but the shrinking and poor sizing really hurt the overall experience. If comfort and a reliable fit matter to you, there are better options available for a similar price. Overall Rating: 3/5 Disclaimer: This review is based on my personal experience using the product. I'm not an expert—just sharing my honest thoughts to help others make an informed decision.

Good shirt
Size: Small, Color: Black
Very nice shirt, I usually wear medium but I had to get one size smaller. The small men size fits my collar great but the dryer might shrink it.

It’s not Polo but a good shirt
Size: X-Large, Color: White
I too thought it was Ralph Lauren Polo but found out that it was US Polo Association. It is a bit boxy but fits well. It is a good quality shirt and a good value for the price. Runs true to size.
