that looks so much better.

NigeType3 · 6 Jul 2005, 11:49 am

Nice ride I love the new stance

mmmmmmmm low bug mmmmmmmmmmm

1500S · 6 Jul 2005, 1:24 pm

Looks nice but.........ahhhh the bearing manufacturers love the setup for lack of lubrication on those swing axles! Oil doesn't really run up hill all that well so run on a bouncy road every couple of days!

oval TOFU · 6 Jul 2005, 4:46 pm

I was thinking how it would get lubed too... Can you get sealed rear bearings or something?

Newbie · 6 Jul 2005, 5:34 pm

So how did u get it lowered?
Just adjusters on the frount beam, or more?
Looks awesome!

lohoon · 6 Jul 2005, 6:15 pm

looks cool.are they actual white walled tyres or "flappers"?

its63b · 6 Jul 2005, 6:49 pm

not too sure about the bearings but ill have to look into it,the front beam has 2 adjsuters welded in and the rear has jsut been wound down a few splines...and as for the whitewalls they are jsut the flaps from classic vee dub,give the car a whole new look lol

VDUBXTC · 7 Jul 2005, 10:49 pm

looks ok, but liked it better stock.

decked dubby · 7 Jul 2005, 11:51 pm

That looks unreal dude!!!😉

65busser · 8 Jul 2005, 8:38 am

Looks great. How's it drive?
Btw, what colour is that?

its63b · 8 Jul 2005, 6:29 pm

shes a bit bumpy atm,need new rear shocks and should be sweet,also am replacing the stearing coupling tomorrow so it will also steer a bit better.the colour id beryl green..

type_one · 8 Jul 2005, 10:19 pm

Mate I'm guessing if you lowered it a few splines in the back she is now ridding on the bump stops. Must be a hard ride. Get yourself some coil overs for the back to give you some spring back before you crack the chassis or the body of the car.

The buy Looks so good man the white walls look killer. I want to get some for my van how much do they cost. Do you just glue them on to your existing tyres?

its63b · 20 Jul 2005, 8:44 pm

yeh they give the car a totally different look hey,i got mine form classic vw in sydney for $90 for the set of 4,theres actuallya flat bit that sits behind your rim,then u pump up the tyre and the tyre holds the wall behind the rim.but definantly money well spent
