The caps  wrap about halfway around the torsion tubes and are located 
on the forward  face of the torsion tubes, just outboard of the center 
forging that has  the torsion bar splines and that the tranny attaches 
to. You can easily  see at least part of them from below.



Jim, would this area be covered by the boxed reinforcement on the earlier  
subframes? I'm just asking, because VW did away with the boxed sections in 
mid  69 (to allow more cooling air for the AT, at least that's VW's reason). 
If  so, then that vent/drain would be covered.
