Description Complete Details
 
To get proper Ackerman, you need to have the right length of tie rods when you narrow your beam. It is not as simple as cutting your tie rods the amount you narrowed your beam. It's a math problem.

For reference, your steering box is not in the center of the beam. It is to the left here in the US. So the lengths of the tie rods play a major role in steering geometry. So, to not give away our secrets, let's just say we have done the math for you.

These tie rods are narrowed enough to allow for four to six inches of narrowed width on a 1966 through 1977 Type 1 Classic Volkswagen Beetle, Karmann Ghia, in a ball joint application. For the four inch application, you will have less threads showing on the tie rod ends and for the six inch, you will have more. Stock tie rods consist of part numbers 131415801B, 131415802C for 1966-68, and 131415801F, 131415802E for 1969-77.

5 of 5 Steering geometry off September 17, 2019
Reviewer: Dan Brown from Portland, OR United States  
Purchased narrowed beam tie rod set up from different vender when I originally set up my front end. I have had issue after issue from tire wear to terrible turn radius. Pete and the boys resolved my problems with their product quick and easy.

Reviewer: bruce paul from worthington, OH United States  
When working on 50 year old cars, and already replaced the beam, probably  might as well go the entire way.
