In 1999, the only way to get the perfect stance, wheels, and brake fitment on your ride was by cutting up the factory beam. It was a tedious, complex process to narrow your track and install adjusters—one that left many enthusiasts searching for a better solution.

After countless attempts to work with fabricators, we decided to take matters into our own hands and design the perfect beam from scratch. Every detail was carefully planned, and we made sure it included everything you need and nothing you don't.

As good as your Beam looks on camera, I was even more blown away by seeing the real thing in my shop. The powder coating was immaculate. The assembly was meticulous, and though I had thought of doing the assembly myself, I was so happy I didn't. For the price, this thing just looks like it will perform, and I'm excited to install it and to have it under me. What a great product, Pete! You guys overperformed on this Ball Joint Beam. Thanks! Best money I've spent on this project.

This was one of the purchases for my Ghia that was a had to have. I expected quality but WOW this Beam has exceeded expectation. Definitely motivation to get everything else done. Welds, powder coat, parts and pieces all top notch. I'll be ordering another for my dads beetle.

I have been a customer of Airkewld for the past four years. I have nothing really to say because the excellent quality of Pete's products already speak for themselves. I'm sure other customers can attest to my review. If other people are debating on purchasing from Airkewld...do it! I guarantee you won't regret it. Pete also provides excellent customer service to match the level of his products.

Q: Do I need to modify my vehicle’s body to install the PRObuilt Beam?
A: No body modifications are required! The PRObuilt Beam is designed to fit directly into your existing setup. The inside dimension is 29 13/16", giving you just 1/16" of clearance on each side—so it's a clean, easy install without any cutting or welding. It's truly a bolt-in solution, saving you time and hassle.

Q: How is the beam narrowed by 4 inches when there’s only 1/2 inch on each side of my stock beam?
A: Great question! To achieve the 4-inch narrowing, we strategically use the outer ends of the tubes and gusset outward, which gives us the additional space needed. This technique maintains structural integrity while providing the track width and versatility you need.
