Stage 1 PRObuilt Adjustable Type 3 Beam Complete - 2206

Lowering a Type 3.......is difficult. If you adjust the torsions with the factory beam, the ball joints bind up, giving the end user almost no travel and no user enjoyment. So you can do that, and as you did back in the 80s, you can still smile, but you know the wife isn't traveling with you as the ride is bonk. Yes, bonk. The PRO's had an idea with a few minor changes; we can update the front suspension to a 1969 Karmann Ghia and reap all the rewards of drop spindles, adjustable beams, and American-made disc brake kits. The Type 3 Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam is here.

The installation of this beam requires a couple minor mods. It requires two holes drilled into the trunk section for the shock studs, trimming of the pinch mold on the front bulkhead and the bottom mounts. For more info on the mods, please read the install article here.

What's recommended?

• If you are going for the dropped look and want to run either Airkewld's GEN 2 Disc Brake kit or your factory drums opt for the DRUM Drop Spindles. If you keep your Factory Disc Brakes (4 lug), opt for the DISC Drop Spindles. If you are keeping the drop moderate, a stock height spindle for the drum or factory disc is available.
• If you want to make this beam install even more complete, maybe installing a GEN 2 Disc Brake kit might make sense. To have the PRO's install them, you will need to add the labor to do that here, then choose your disc brake kit here.
• If your steering coupler from your column to your steering box has seen better days, the PRO's suggest the OEM PRObuilt Steering Box Coupler found here.

FAQ

• Do I need to do body mods to install this beam? Maybe. Depending on the year, a single hole might need to be drilled.
• Do I need to send in a core? No.
• Will I need anything in addition to this assembly? No. It's as complete as it comes from the factory.
• Why is the lower bushing fatter than the top bushing? This update was made to get the best camber adjustment possible with a lowered ball joint suspension. It allows the eccentric to be in the center of adjustment in the middle range and meet the needs if you are slammed or stock height.

The front end will be coated apart and assembled to keep the clean look with new hardware. It's set to the medium height setting so that you can adjust it to your liking. It's pre-greased, and alignment will set in a rough application for shipping.
