This new coil-over design with small 75mm spring gives maximum wheel and tire clearance for larger 16, 17, and 18 inch wheels. Wheels must have a minimum 5 1/2 inch back spacing for best results. Supplied with adjustable ride height housings, gas shock inserts, springs, billet aluminum spring holders, red street sport springs, and closing nut. As an additional benefit, these have a significantly reduced weight of the new spring and components, which knowledgeable VW enthusiasts know results in less un-sprung weight. Less un-sprung weight means better ride, and better handling!

You do re-use your original top bearing mounts.

Your installation will require careful planning, as the kit will only work with rims with 5 1/2 to 6 inch back spacing (approximately 50 to 55mm offset). Longer wheel studs and wheel spacers will probably be necessary.

These fit the 2 bolt struts used on 1973 1/2 -79 Super Beetles.

Tapered Super Beetle Strut Springs (1" Lift Springs, Rally Springs, Baja Springs), Pair, 87-0307 are a huge improvement on anything else available! Tapered design gives more clearance for wider wheels and tires. Progressive spring rate prevents bottoming the suspension

These are perfect for stock convertibles (with the additional weight), electric car conversions (battery bank in trunk), or even subaru engine conversions where you are putting the radiator in the front!

1" Lowered Tapered Super Beetle Strut Springs (Sport Springs), Pair, 87-0308 are a huge improvement compared to anything else! Tapered design gives more clearance for wider wheels and tires. Progressive spring rate prevents bottoming, while actually providing a slight lowering too!

This product is a simple installation that simply that ties the front strut towers together (it triangulates them), giving your Super Beetle a tighter, more rigid front suspension by dramatically reducing chassis deflection. You will IMMEDIATELY notice quicker steering response, improved stability and more consistent alignment. Made in USA!

This strut tower brace is a new product for strengthening the Super Beetle's weak front end structure. Plasma cut steel side plates are fixture drilled for perfect fit.

The crossmember is 6061-T6 heavy wall aluminum for maximum strength. Spacer washers and all hardware are supplied to fit the bar to your chassis perfectly. We recommend that this bar be installed with our urethane lower control arm bushings for best results.

If your car is suffering from the "Super Beetle Shimmy", make sure that the suspension is repaired properly BEFORE installing this item. We DO NOT make any claims that this device will stop your shimmies on its own merit. However, it will add a feeling of stability and quietness over rough roads and turns that you can feel!

Excellent Strut Insert for Superbeetles!

KYB Shocks are sold per EACH, you need 2 to do one axle.

1973 1/2+ 2-Bolt struts use 2 bolts to attach the strut housing to the Spindle and Ball Joint Assembly. 1971-1973 1/2 3-Bolt struts use 3 bolts to attach the strut housing to the Spindle and Ball Joint Assembly.

Replace your shaft if the universal joints are loose. The looseness is caused by the needle bearings wearing out and breaking up and or falling out. The loose steering shaft is not the cause of shaking, it is the result of it! The needle bearings are not greasible, and they get very dry and wear (after all, they ARE 40 years old!). You can easily see the play in the Universal once you remove the fuel tank and play with the steering. This is not the cause of the Super Beetle Shimmy, but this part is commonly dangerously worn out!

If your Super has been suffering from shimmies and shakes, or sloppy steering, a new idler arm bushing may be needed. This bushing is an exact replacement for the horrible bonded rubber bushing, but with the performance improvements of solid brass! This bushing is a precision fit in your existing idler arm holder assembly. Simply press this into your idler arm box, then drill & tap the holder for a Zerk fitting, making the bushing serviceable with a grease gun (the original was not!).

This fits chassis FROM #112-25-75327.

If you have a 1972 Super and are not sure if you have an early or late one, the early Idler Arm Bushing has an OD of ~1.5" (38mm), and an ID of 1.023" (26mm). The Late Idler Arm Bushing has an OD of ~1.187" (30mm), and an ID of .710" (18mm).
