The Game Changer is weeks away and it will reek havoc on the type 3 Industry. The ultimate beam will be invading and taking over the beam market with a proven method that will keep the handling and drivability in check. This Ball Joint style beam is 4 inches narrowed. The Ultimate Narrowed Adjustable type 3 beam will come complete with torsions, adjusters and bushings. You will need the following to work on your type 3.

1. Drop Spindles
2. Upper and Lower control arms from a 1966-75 Beetle or Ghia
3. Eccentrics
4. Shocks
5. Tie rods
6. If you have factory Disc brakes, you will need Drop Disc Spindles. If you have a 1973-1974 Model Type 3 with disc brakes, you will need new calipers as well. Factory rotors, bearings and caps will work just fine. If you have factory drum brakes, you will need to either purchase a disc brake package for a 1969-79 Standard Beetle/Ghia in the bolt patter you need or find Drum brakes in the same pattern from a 1969-75 Standard Beetle or Ghia. We have some BAD Series Disc Brakes that will compliment this front end perfectly.
