I have SOLD 19,500 of these and I bet you have never seen one of these. Right?
Crazy to think that after 10 years of selling
these, we have sold over 19,500 in 38 countries! WoW!!! I bet you have never seen one and more than likely, your head will explode when I show it to you. What am I talking about? Great question.
There is a wing nut that when functioning at it best, is roughly a FIVE out TEN experience. This original nut, in theory, would allow the VW owner to adjust his clutch feel to get the right amount of pedal to disengage the clutch. But most of the time...........
It can fit dual carbs with a mechanical fuel pump, but the down lead will need to be replaced with a braided hose to the fuel pump and back to the chassis. Currently, we do not offer those.
Contrary to belief, the shockless beam can and does ride amazing when using Airkewld's delrin bushings. One tip though, if the vehicle is adjusted all the way down, the ride will be rough, lift it up and inch and the ride improves. All Shockless PRObuilt Beams are 6 inch narrowed.
Beetle/Ghia's need a 4" Narrowed beam and short axles, (Standard equipment on pre 65 vehicles) or Narrowed IRS arms (69 and later) to run the wheels staggered. (More wheel lip in the rear)
14mm Studs with Acorn seat lug nuts
P205r40-17 Tires up front, P215r45-17 Tires in the rear

Since this is a service and not a purchase, before purchasing, please remove the spindles from your bus and pack them in a nice sturdy box. After purchasing from us online, we will send a prepaid shipping label via email to pay for the shipping back to us.
No body mods, cutting or notching is necessary with this beam. If the vehicle has been in an accident, it is possible that minimal massaging will be needed to install.
