Hi...

What is the best way of lowering a 1302S at the front and rear? Can I use dropped splidles?

Cheers

Jay

Read the follwoing link by Steve C

http://www.clubvw.org.au/struts.htm

also go to www.superbeetlesonly.com and then go to tech and stuff and read the articles there

BEFORE you lower work out what wheels you are going to run. If you want wide (6" or 7" ) on the front you need thinner springs. If you want stock, you could get away with just lowering the perch and running stock springs.
