I have two beetle ball joint front ends.
One has disc brakes and the other has drums.
They are both straight.
$100 each pick up only sorry.

i have a ball joint front end with drum brakes. am interested in your disc brake front end if stub axles rotors and calipers will go on my frontend. do you know if this is possible? thanks. walsh.

yes they will, but you don't need the whole front end to do that, just the stubs and everything outboard of them. Check tie-rod dimension (68/69 model is smaller) and I think master cylinder will need changing, too, to disc-brake type
