Here is a quick tech tip showing you how to tell the difference between a Swing Axle Transmission and an IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) Transmission or Transaxle on your Air-cooled Volkswagen Beetle or Dune Buggy.
Swing Axle Transmissions ran from 1946-1968 on a stock Air-cooled VW Beetle or Bug. Early style Buses also used standard beetle transaxles and used reduction boxes. Swing Axles have an enclosed 'Swing Axle' tube, and a single axle boot on the transmission side of the axle tube.
IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) transmissions were used from 1969 and on VW Beetles and late-style buses. They are identified by the exposed axle, use two CV joints (Constant Velocity joints), and have a CV Boot on each end of both axles - 2 per axle, 4 total axle boots.
