Thanks DB I doubted it however with VW you never know what bits are common.Mitchell

From memory the Bug shocks are shorter, so they wouldnt have the travel distance on the Kombi. and vise versa i suspose

Splitty Kombi shocks will change with king and link beetle shocks, they are the same,
The later bay rears are way too long for a Beetle.

G'day Mitchell,

Bay shocks are longer (rear by quite a bit), Splitty shocks are same length as early Beetle but much fatter, bj frontend Beetles have pin type tops on the front shocks and later ones had a long bolt tube at the bottom eye on the rear shocks.

Hope this compensates a little for the strong "no".
Cheers, Ian.

Hi Ian , of course I wasnt talking about you but the post above. Thanks for the intrest. Mitchell

it is valid with so much interchangeable on vw
