OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Torsion Leaf STIFF Replacement Springs, for Type 181 (VW THING) with Ball Joint Front End, PER SIDE
Torsion Leaf STIFF Replacement Springs, for Type 181 (VW THING) with Ball Joint Front End, PAIR
 
Torsion Leaf STIFF Replacement Springs, for Type 181 (VW THING) with Ball Joint Front End, PAIR are the stiff leafs (3 per tube) to go inside the beam that provide the "spring" in your suspension. Be sure they are well greased up during installation. THING Springs are stiffer than Beetle and Ghia leafs, so don't make the mistake of ordering the regular Beetle and Ghia ones if you have a Type 181!

If you have an off-road car with a BJ Front End, you can also use these to prevent premature bottoming out in the rough stuff!

This product contains 6 stiff replacement leaves to swap out 3 each in the both upper and lower torsion tubes on one car.

Price: $299.95
