How low can i go without major surgery on suspension etc?
Can this (the pic attached) be achieved with beam adjusters or drop spindles?
Cheers for any advice

hmmm..

That would be on the front inner guards me thinks. You can get that sort of ride height with adjusters but ride quality would sux as you will have no up travel.

Same same with dropped spindles.

This is about the normal lowered ride height.

Sweet,many thanx for the reply mate.
My beetle is 135mm off the ground,so I'm used to no suspension travel.
Could you advise me of the costs involved with a beam and adjusters? maybe a changeover scenario if you or anyone else does it?
Thanx again

I was hoping to see some pics.

Brad that is Dennis' bus yeah?? Was around there the other day looking at all the "projects" he has LOL.

the green bay has prolly some chassis mods as well in the rear plus some very small 14" rubber to get that low.

Lowering plates in the rear and the front would have to have drop spindles with inner guard mods.
