Hiya,

After a pair of swing axle spring plates for a Beetle. 78mm inner and 75mm outer bushing sizes would be preferred but whatever you may have 🙂

Cheers,
Mike

Brissy would be more handy too 🙂

hi, not sure on the measurements, but as far as i know all swing axles had the same size bushes, they had different style of bushes (ie one was round and others had 4 tabs coming off them) and ovals had thicker spring plates with bigger torsion bars, but all spring plates were still interchangeable. I have the original spring plates, caps and torsion bars that came out of my 1967 swing axle beetle, if you are interested PM me.... cheers adam

Ok, I'm a bit of a dumb arse. I just re-checked my modded spring plates and they can still be used. So no need for new ones.

Thanks though 🙂
